Unless you are building a pure drag car, or plan to run the car in a competition road race class that requires ABS removal, I would not reccomend removing it. With the exception of the rare low speed issue Scott described, ABS is a good thing.

Very few race car drivers can outperform the performance of most production ABS systems, and the general population doesn't stand a chance of beating it. By far the biggest advantage it offers is allowing you to continue to have steering control under heavy braking. This is extrmely valuable in every day driving, as well as it's maximizing straight line braking performance at the track.

I'd relocate it rather than removing it if at all possible.
