so for us spec ap1's there is no way to lose the air pump with out a c.e.l. ?? im kindof releved actually cus i dont wanna really do this mod,, yet i do..

 

Short answer, No.

Unless you buy a EMS

 

^ Correct. This has been discussed alot lately.

 

but is it safe to drive without one

 

Yes, but the CEL constantly on will mask a real problem should another code come up.

 

Wasn't there a sponsor who made a fix for the cel last year some time? Little black box type thing that imitated the air pump.

It was a one run deal initially, but they sold out fast and I thought they might end up making more sooner or later.

 

Air pump delete module couldn't be made to work on USDM cars. All the parts sold were "recalled". Customers are now waiting on refunds. There sure is a lot of demand for this, too bad as of yet no one figured out a hack.
