Removing AIR with Header install

I want to use SLP headers with no AIR. What type of problems will I run into when taking off all those extra tubes and hoses?

None. I did this when I installed a new long block. The ecm won't even throw a code after doing this. Don't expect any dramatic hp gains though. It just cleans/clears up the engine bay a bit and drops about 15 lbs off of the front of the car. I also removed my cat at the same time with no ill effects. I would stop there when removing emissions junk if I were you though, I here taking off the egr system will cause all types of problems unless your into chip burning.

That's what I was hoping. I plan to do some custom prom tuning/burning, but not right now. I was going to go with the headers leave the rest of the exhaust. Not a hard decision since it is a 3" single outlet already.
Thanks a bunch,
Gary
