i want to get rid of it all, or most... my friend was over tonight and out of the 3 main objects, he only had 1. the one with the metal pipe can come off, and the left most object with the little hose was off too... im gona start takin stuff out... anyone else done it?

dood, read about what your doing. dont just pull shit off. thats all the egr and all the emmisions on the engine. read before you pull that off.

Yeah alot of people(including myself) have taken that stuff off, but you shouldn't just start taking stuff off. Research and find out what each thing is and what it does first. Then decide. I have no emmissions at all where I live so my car is stripped of just about everything.

Ben's got a thorough post here somewhere archived.
