I've got nothing but good to say about removing mine. I have Marc's chip in mine, also dolled up with fan temp control, modified idle, and some other stuff. It runs soooo sweat (ask him when you see him).

That's why I was a little bit shocked when Marc's recommendation, given at his talk at the ZR-1 gathering in BG last year, was to leave the secondaries in. He described how and when the secondaries open, and how to manipulate them while drag racing and cruising. But, in my experience it is more responsive and the over all driveability is sooo nice, not to mention not having to ever worry about the overly complicated system crapping out ever again, that it made me shake my head in disbelief when he said that...

Parts not used don't fail and they don't cost much to fix!



Anywayz...When you come down, and if you have the time, we'll have an FBI pizza GTG, drink some brewskies and tell some lies!
