"2006+ WRX, 2008+ STI, or 2007+ LGT whose owner wants to delete the air pump and air injection valves on the car. I will supply the parts needed and assist in the labor. I want to do a detailed how-to on this and need to take pics. I can disable the CELs in your ECU afterwards. "Off-road use only"... of course".

Just wondering, but what is the benefit for deleting the air pump and air injection valves? dont you kinda need those? haha

They're strictly emissions equipment.

She's a nazi about it..

It should be okay. May ruin your air injection valve... a little more, but it is destined for the trash anyway, right?

If this valve was sticking open, that would possible explain your underboost problem.

Well The CEL just came on. Wouldnt it have come on earlier?

Yea it's destined for the trash. When I get back from sac if you want to use my car for the delete thing that you posted you can.
