The rats nest is the emissions related solenoids and vacuum lines on the driver side on the engine. Removing it just cleans things up and reduces chances for vacuum leaks. For the GSL-SE, you can't really remove it without affecting driveability. I would just leave it in place.

The rat's nest also does more than emissions, depending on options.

Bottom line: removing the rats nest does not net any additional horsepower, but for a car that is operated as a race vehicle, or in a region that does not have air pollution laws, it can make working on the car and diagnosing problems much simpler. That's why I did it.
