Perhaps it is wiser to ask what advantages you want and determine whether removing it will provide such advantages.

Do you understand what it does?

The "advantage" is less restriction past the throttle body (it's like getting a free TURBONATOR). Plus, as noted, if the system malfuctions your available power is greatly reduced. It also removes any doubt during boost trobleshooting.

Much like the AWS, the car will operate normally with it removed. It will just lack protection from idiots boosting while cold.
