I think you'd probably be better off leaving it unless the unit is leaking. Don't all FDs come with ABS? You're going to have a hard time if they do: Probably need a different master cylinder, a few unions or new lines, and some sort of re-proportioning valve.

I tried it on my FC by just removing the unit and "T"ing the feed lines, But the result was scary soft brakes. Had to switch everything over.

 

You've got some air in the lines. Recommend using a pressure bleeder to flush & bleed your brake system first.

I did the ABS bypass on my FC as you described and have never had any problems with soft/spongy brakes as long as I bled them properly.

 

Yeah that's what I thought initially.

Wound up switching everything over to Non-ABS setup (master cylinder, booster, new lines), and the problem went away. I dunno why, But maybe its hit or miss for some.

 

Thanx for the advice i just want to make the engine bay look as simple as possible

if you really want to, you could relocate the abs pump, running new lines to put the unit somewhere else. I've seen it done on a few other cars. They hide it under the fenders in some cases.

 

alex rodriguez makes a kit if ur interested

 

Kinda super easy, facing the master cylinder line closest to the resivoir goes to a proportioning valve and goes to the rears, out side one t's and heads to each one of the front brakes
Pretty sure the 3rd gen section even has a write up somewhere

 

I used to have a write up on nopistons.com pinned in the top of the 3rd gen forum. It's been a few years but it might still be there. It's a pretty easy mod as Kevin mentioned.
