@86.5Tibueon Worth keeping for sure. Air valve unbolts from passenger side head. Plug or cap the air box and vacuum line2. Save the two air pump hoses and filter at radiator.

The components of the AIR subsystem are as follows:
-air pump
-air manifold (on pump)
-pump inlet hose from pump to filter housing on fan shroud
-vacuum actuated diverter valve (mounted via bracket to cam cover)
-check valve (immediately beneath diverter valve)
-plumbing from check valve to cats
-hose to air box from diverter valve (pumps air into engine when AIR is not needed for cats i.e when operating temp has been achieved)

Just look at the PET and it wil show you the entire assembly exploded.

My cats are gutted so there is no point apart from heating up the exhaust unecessarily.
