Question Hawk WRX Secondary air pump delete???

Anyone done this on an 06/07 Hawk?

Where did you get the plates from as I can only find RCM ones for £60!

If someone can point me to a how to guide with pics I'd appreciate it.

Cheers

Get in touch with ASPerformance for the blanking plates. Got mine from them last month for £30 delivered.

I think it needs the plates added then mapped. My light came on 2 years ago and it was this air pump but he switched it off and it has not come on since. I think its some daft system that lowers the emissions on start up

yeah from what I've read its to aid warming up the cat quicker. No performance gain from removing it but mine is starting to throw up the eml light every now and then and as I'm thinking about a map and new clutch I thought i'd rip it out while the engine is out.
