What all do you need to delete the air pump? Do you need any block-off plates or anything or does the pump just come off and you plug the hoses? Any info would be helpful. How much does it weight?

 

It is not heavy may 2-3 lbs, you can remove it and plug the opening on the intake ducting. You can remove the tube for a cleaner look and plug the holes at the manifold or it may be easier to plug the holes on the tube.

 

I remember hearing something about 22mm plugs for on the manifolds. not sure what type of plugs they are talking about.
