Well, you can also get an LSJ exhaust manifold and downpipe and remove it all and tune it out of the PCM. That is what I am doing for my supercharger build.

the sai is a little pain but not much. those little apc universal filters work great for protecting that sai line. I've got an injen intake and I love the sound and little added power.

Easiest thing to do is nothing....I dont have anything on my hose, I just left it alone. No issues in 17months.

Whats too much work? come on. You put the intake you want on and youre done, if you want a header you either buy one that works with SAI, or you buy what you want and get a tune, or you buy what you want and deal with a CEL every so often. Youre being a drama queen.

correction... maybe your LAP doesnt have sai... but mine does.. because of certain emission laws in certain states i believe that only those certain ones have them.

anyone with California Emissions (NY, CA, couple other states)
This would be any car built for those states, or any car that was not specifically labeled to be for sale in one state

ex. GM often builds random models assuming they'll be in demand somewhere even though there wasn't a specific order for that model at the time they started it

Actually, I live in PA and my car has the CA emissions. It all depends on what the sales department orders I guess.
