Secondary Air Pump Removal
#3
I know most Spec996 cars have it removed - and mine is headed that direction - so I don't really care about the CEL that will come on - I am removing cats anyway...
That said - I just don't know if you can disconect the hose and just cap it in lieu of completely removing it and getting a capping plate.

The problem with blocking the hose is that when (not if) other problems develop with the remains of the SAI system(vacuum leaks for example!) ,you will ignore the CEL.
Better to remove the entire system and get the ROW Flash so you never get an SAI code of any sort -and you do other tweaks to the ECU. Smog Test not an issue for your location ?

My indy has a PWIS so the coding should be easy....
I just ordered the block off plates and the gaskets - seems like for $20 and the fact that this is a track car - it's a no-brainer.

Short update:
I removed the pump and simply blocked the hose. Since the CEL was already on due to my exhaust - nothing more happened.
The car starts and runs just fine. Longer term - I ordered the block off plates - but believe it or not - it looks like its going to be a metric pain in the *** to actually uninstall the hoses and get to the block off plates - as in - remove the alternator and all associated bits...
Either way - if you don't want it - feel free to remove and plug the hose... there are no (seeming) ill effects on the performance of the car except a CEL.
