unneccessary bits on a CA18DET

[mazikowski]

What are some parts that can be taken off and not cause problems? I am putting the DET in my Pulsar and anything I can take off would be a plus. I already took off the AC and PS because my old engine didn't have either so i won't miss them (and I can use the S13 alternator :]). I have been told that the FICD vavle is only used to compensate for AC useage, so i am not going to worry about hooking that up.

Is there anything else that you guys can think of or reasons why I should leave certain things on?

EDIT: I will be hooking up the butterfly valves once i get the engine in the car because i have all the parts for it from my old engine.

You can bypass the coolant lines that run to the TB. I dont think it will cause you any issues in Alabama.

You can clean out that rats next of vacuum lines for all the emissions ****. I did anyway, its easy to fudge MA.
