no cat = no air pump?
i bought my car with the cat replaced by a 2.5 inch straight pipe. i also have the regular air pump on my engine. is my airpump even doing anything with no cat? i thought that all they did was pump fresh air into the cat to keep them from frying... can i just take it out with no problem? if so what do i need to take the **** out? i'd love to have the little bit of extra room under there from taking that air pump out. also, what do i need to do besides drain the lines to take my AC out?(its 134a) i never use it so its just taking up space under there.

yes you can remove the airpump and belt. it's 2 bolts. if you still have the stock air box you need to block off the hole in the airbox. when you remove the airpump there is a pipe behind it, pull it off and put a small filter on it. (goes to ACV)
