So I can throw it away along with all the electronics that plug into it right? I already took it off along with ; AIR tubes, cat, smog pump. I was just wondering if I take it off will it cause negative effects or will it throw codes ?

It will throw codes and effect perfromance as the computer attempts to deal with what it thinks is an emission systems failure. If you get inspected... you'll get fined.

Im gonna leave it out beacuse; 1 I live in florida and there is no inspections and no smog tests. 2 I asked two of the moderators on here vader & abubaca and they both said that it wont hurt performance and wont throw codes, and that taking apart the smog stuff will actually yield alittle more power as it no longer puts drag on the engine. So Im saying goodbye to all of that crap. If I get a code I'll just burn a chip and have it taken off.
