Bonez intake for 'SE , air pump or no?

How do i find out if my car has an air pump or not? (1985 GSL-SE)

For instance, at the rotary performance site they have two versions, one w/ the air pump and one for cars without it:

Thanks

Unless the previous owner removed it, the car should have one. It has a large pully on it, which is the closest one to the air filter kinda underneath the alternator. There should be a tube running from it to the air box.


You can KINDA see it here... Look near my fan, you will see another smaller filter which is connected to the airpump and you can also see a belt which is for the air pump.

I've kept it for Emmissions purpose and also to help with my acutators. You should read a thread that was on here recently, the pros/cons of removing the air pump, that should probably give you idea of what you want to do.
