Qucik question tho, why waste the time to do all that? Aside from a somewhat "cleaner" engine bay, there is NO advantage to removing it, especially with a stock exhaust manifold.

I did it because:
1.) Car doesnt care if I rip it off...
2.) Little less weight, little more power
3.) I got big arms and it was MUCH easier to change the plugs with the tubes off
