Why do you want to remove something that you don't know what it looks like or realize its function? Just curious.

weight reduction....
i heard it serves no purpose except for the beggining few minutes your car is on. and i can always easily bolt that back on myself no?? why not take 5 or 10pounds or whatever it weighs off the car.

Exactly, what he said above. Why would you want to take it off?? Just for fun? It has absolutely no bearing on the performance of your engine. It just pumps clean air from your intake tube into the exhaust to help out your catalytic converter with emissions. If you take your cat. off then the is no point to having it, but if you have all your emissions there is no point in removing it.

Yeah Yeah
I would say the air pump weighs about 5 pounds... I was surprized at its weight when I took it off. The was actually a little bit of water and quite a bit of carbon on the inside of the lines of mine. I have no cat so saw no point in having it.

Although like I said before It would be pretty pointless to remove unless you don't have a cat or it is broke and you don't HAVE to pay to fix it. Unless of course weight reduction...HAAA..HAA..HA..HA.. Oh sorry I couldn't control myself...
