it wont hurt anything engine wise, you'll prob. gain a few hp, but those smog pumps
are known to seize up if they set too long w/ out being used

i would totally agree with him because i know someone who bypassed the smog pump and so far he has been gained a little horse power but like this guy said they would seize up after a while without use but you should be fine

ok, and im not going to take it off because i am known for dealing cars so when i end up selling this one it will be harder to sell with it off and plus id have to go 50 miles n register my plates somewhere else for the time being to get emissions off my back. If it was a cheap fox then i would gut and make it na all out racer.
