Imo,By all means don't remove the air injection if you wish to stay smog legal,like hot air injected into your incoming cool air charge defeating the purpose of your cai mod. and have plenty of engine bay space

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not...but the AIR pump pumps oxygen into the manifolds during cold startup, not the other way around.

OP, I don't quite get what you're asking. If you haven't "tooken" off your AIR system why are you worried about the AIR injection tubes? You leave alot of questions to be asked.

how bout we use a little common sense and think about what the AIR does. There, now that we've thought about it, how could it cause the car to run poorly?
