Yes you just unplug or disconnect that and plug the opening, if your reusing the ls4 valley cover. If not it isn't required. Then u have to cut and reweld the opsu at a certain degree, for clearance check the sticky for details

Don't start the car up till you flash the tune though

Make sure the tuner utilizes your cam card to to get your injector timing right.

Do not start it, if dod is still enabled in your tune it will go into limp mode upon start up
