Can you remove it? Sure. Should you remove it? Probably not. That hose runs your auxiliary port actuators. You will notice a large drop in power in the upper RPM range if you unhook that hose.

well so far from what i just did today it didnt change a thing, but it did increase throttle control more. How?IDk I just know it did from the feel of the driving. And I had no decrease in purformance with the auxiliary port actuators since mine are partially stuck and the screws are messed up. (Prevision owner messed it up trying to fix them) Car runs good with straight pipes all the ways back to mufflers. (Apexi N1 Tip, rest custom piping) Runs great sounds GREAT! But I have a question on some brake calipers; do the heaver duty 4 piston calipers fit on my car? I have just the single piston calipers. Just wondering?!?!

Thanks,
Mark
