Question Airpump removal... what's involved?

What's up peepz?! I just had my 3" exhaust system completed about an hour ago and I'm getting rid of my airpump maybe tomorrow morning but first, I wanna know what else is involved and what I need to buy. I already have the ACV block off plate from RB. Do I need to change my pulley,etc.?? Thanks!

Ahhh, take the airpump and remove it.

Sorry, need more details, S4, or S5? Does your 3" exhaust have a method for port actuation?

Might wanna get the dual alternator pulley to keep the water pump from slipping. Other than that, if you have a way to activate the 6ports and VDI (89-91) then you should be good to go.

Unbolt it and throw it against a hard surface......

I also just got a dual alternator pulley because i didn't like the idea of only having one belt..

Where and how much did you get for your dual alt. pulley?? Does anybody else know where the best place to get such item? Also, how difficult is it to install it yourself? Thanks!

I noticed when i removed my air pump
that my belt will slip every once in a while.
Where can i find a cheap dual pully?
