Ill be getting knee deep into my engine this long weekend comming up.
but i think i will be taking out the A/C and all the smog pump stuff what do you guys think. gimmie all the advice you guys got go or no go . im going for simplicity.
I wouldn't take all of it out, 'What if ' you some day need it back, or you can't get it inspected sometime? You can't tell what will happen tomarrow, and you may need it. It can still go fast with that equipment.
Go for it, i just removed my airbox, the smog pump has been off for years, the egr is comming off when i put on the new intake on.. it looks alot better when all that junk is removed.. but it's just my .02 :seeya
If you're not going the stock route, take out what you legally can, put the parts in a box(s) and mark. The parts may be of value to you someday or when/if you sell the car.
Be careful. Go to the NYS inspection & emission website to review requirements for your car and location within NY. I think the emission testing is different depending if you're in downstate or upstate New York. go here http://www.nydmv.state.ny.us/vehsafe.htm
