Air pump (yes I searched)

And thorugh the search everything said something different. So here's the deal, I have an '86 GXL N/A and I want to remove the air pump and cats, but I want to keep the 5th and 6th ports. If I get the Racing Beat presilencer/cat replacement pipe can I keep the ports? How do I set that up? What's the process for removing the air pump on the '86 GXL and setting up the ports to still work with the presilencer?

The 5th and 6th port system on the '86-'88 has nothing to do with the airpump. Loose the air pump, then loose the ACV. I believe that all the racing beat cat replacement stuff has a port to actuate the 5th and 6th ports, so everything should still work as designed.

Nevermind, I found it, although an v-FAQ or HOWTO (with pictures) for the EGR and ACV would be nice if you know of any..
