It feeds fresh air into the catalytic converter so that the cat doesn't clog up as fast.

Make sure that you dont just add a midpipe if you have any other mods and no fuel mangement.

The cat completes combustion on exhaust fumes (by heating them up), cleaning up the exhaust. You need the air for this combustion.

The cat will clog without the pump. You won't pass emmisions without the cat, and it's illegal to drive on the road (if you care).

Are there emissions laws in Hong Kong?

Anyways, if you can't get an aftermarket fuel computer or port your wastegate, you can put in a restrictor plate in your exhaust system.
