Yeah, if emissions are very loose out there, just remove it all. Although you need blanking plates for the air control valve setup.

I run a dual alternator belt pulley, there\'s one for sale on here for fairly cheap I think.

It\'s not really going to cause me to many problems though by leaving it alone is it? I don\'t want to get to far ahead of myself until I\'m back in the UK and have WGT to sort it out for me. :Giggle

I can\'t find the dual alt pulley for cheap and I need one

I\'ve not got a Cyprus MOT and I don\'t think they\'re strict, they last for 2 years for christ sake!! But what I\'m saying is I dont need to remove it do I? It\'s not an issue to leave it on instead of risking breaking something and needlessly spending more cash on blacking plates when I could have coilovers instead etc?

You don\'t need to, they are removed mainly due to space if you need to fit a bigger turbo etc or indeed you need the extra 2bhp it yields from removing it lol

Part of my emissions stuff had been removed already probably about a decade ago, im just finishing the job

Maybe I\'ll look into it when I\'ve replaced the rad and fan and am looking for more mods to do to improve the engine bay :Giggle
