you will have to make a plate to cover the hole, use a gasket. Follow the hose back to the TFS, it can be removed. The other side of the TVS should be source vacume, remove that line and cap its source.

u'll get a little bit of power out of it nothing really noticeable but it just holds ur engine back and u really dont need it. if u have one on ur car take that off including ur smog pump unless u live in a state where u have to get inspections.
