Air Pump Removal
i was wondering if removing the air pump and all the pertinant hoses would cause the car to go into limp mode? or would it just cause a check engine light?(stipulating that i will be running a block off plate on the manifold) i will be removing the air pump + accessories when i install my turbo. i will be running the stock ecu for a while. that is the only reason i'm asking. thanks.

With a stock ECU the CEL will be on without the air pump, and the related hoses/solenoids & valve.
If you have another issue that sets a CEL, you won't know due to the light being on for the pump.

my intercooler piping will clear the air pump, so i may just leave it in for the time being. should i just put a small filter on the end of the hose that usually connects to the intake? thanks for the replies.
