i do, will I have any computer problems? and will it free up any horsepower? Thanks.

I have an '86 Trans Am and I unplugged my smog pump a long time ago! I've had ZERO problems with the computer and since the belt is no longer there, I'm sure the HP gain is there....just very minimal!

I took mine completely off because I bought Hedmann ceramic coated headers w/no air tubes. I have not had any problems.
