I am not familiar with the '99s. Are you running the stock lid still? Any underhood pics you can post?

Or, just delete the system all together.
helmholtz resonator? umm you lost me there. is that the hose running to the top next to the TB?Quote:

Well, heck. Maybe your car does not have it.
The helmholtz resonator is the large plastic piece directly behind the air cleaner. It is designed to cancel standing waves in the intake tract. You can see it in the stock underhood pic of our car:

are you talking about behind the air lid baffles and near the bellows?
On a 99 you just need to remove the pump and the hose/pipes between the pump and the exhaust manifolds. The system looks like this.

so no pluging is required?
just tune out the SES light?
Well you do need to block off the AIR flanges on the exhaust manifolds or buy race headers that don't have AIR flanges.
The third blockoff plate in this pic is for EGR if you wanna remove that also

ok well if i delete AIR&ERG while i have stock manifolds, will the block off plates work on my headers as well? (i already bought emission headers before i found out about this free mod)
and where do i get these block off plates?
Yes the plates work on headers.
I got my plates from Speed Inc. but many others sell them
alrighty then. how long does this take? like 30min to an hour?
Whats the fuse and relay numbers?

I have everything removed except for the diverter. I don't see how this can be removed? It is mounted to a plate which is bolted to the back of the d/s head.
Is there a way to remove the diverter without removing the intake manifold?
You can snake a 15 mm wrench back there and loosen the bolt. The bracket will slide off once it is loose and then tighten the bolt back down. I can't recall, but I think there may be something else that is retained by this bolt.
is there any way to remove the diverter from the plate for now?

thanks, I will take a look at it tomorrow. It might be mounted like the tq arm bushing from the factory.
