Belefits of removing AIR and EGR?
What are the benefits from removing these systems? A little more hp and cleaner looking engine bay? I may or may not do it because I would need a tune...

You will have less clutter in the engine bay, but really no gains. EGR shuts off at WOT anyways, so you won't gain anything. But you will be running a hotter engine because the EGR helps run cooler engine temps and lower levels of NOx's and stuff. So, you may want to look into a cooler t-stat of you do go that route. Or a manual fan switch.

well besides the weight and cleaning things up, deleting egr is sposed to give an extra hp or 2 and deleting the air is sposed to put less strain on your alternator when starting up the car. if you're running an ory the purpose of the air system (which affects the cats) cant be used, so you might as well take that out.
