Default smog pump delete ?'s

i know youinstall the pulley and remove the rubber hoses that come off the pump, but what do you do about the metal tubes that attach to the hoses? Also is it ok to run a delete kiteven if i still have cats?

you'll plug your cats, you need an OR h-pipe

the steel pipe that runs behind the heads can be removed and discarded, then you need to plug the back of the heads w/ thermactor plugs

the steel pipe that goes to the h-pipe can be cut off and capped

mine was $50 and napa had to special order it, I am still trying to figure out if I should get high flow cats or find a used set of cats since I have my smog pump deleted, I don't want to mess up a pricey high flow cat x pipe if they are going to just get clogged up.

It you only deleted the smog pump then you will use an 84.5" short belt.
