2G UNNECESSARY Sensors

[dsmtalon2008]

I was wondering if anyone has compiled a list of sensors for the 2g that are not necessary for the motor to run. Im looking to get rid of every sensor that does not provide the motor with a healthy cause. Emissions will be gone. HVAC EVERYTHING! Thanks.

Is this thing still going to be a DD or just race only?

?? weekend warrior..Not sure why this would matter. Motor needs to run healthy either way.

It matters because there are varying degrees of necessary. Such as everyone can remove the vacuum lines form the FPRs but only those with good tuning systems and wideband o2 sensors can get rid of the front o2 sensor.

In general all the sensors are largely necessary however most of the emissions equipment can be pulled just search "engine clean up". You wont get any gain from doing that though. The weight savings will be minimal and there is no power increase whatsoever.

What is your reason for wanting to do this specifically? That will help us figure out what you can get rid of without sacrificing anything that you'll care about.

Cleaner look...I have no power steering, ac, cc, interior is going to be caged soon. If that says anything about where my build is going. Profile not up to date ha, learned a few things about dsm since back in them days.

removing all that crap does wonders for our engine bays! much much cleaner

 

[dsmtalon2008]

Ha, thanks but I was just wondering which ones that I can go without? Thanks again

egr stuff, charcoal canister, make it a non abs car(if not already), a/c, p/s, non cruise cable, cruise control delete etc etc etc....

All of the above listed is already gone in my car. Was mainly looking for the sensors connected to firewall.

Everything connected to the throttle body can go as far as vacuum but you'll need to keep them hooked up electrically to avoid a CEL.

If you run link, you can deactivate those CELs just like you can with the flashable ECUs.

My throttle body top is "shaved" aka ground down/polished with 2 ports welded shut. Looks real good

On my 2 g I got rid of the solinoids on the firewall except for the fuel pressure one.I have dsmlink so I dont get any codes.The whole vacume thing bolted to the back of the intake manifold can go the egr and all emmisions crap can go.

 

[dsmtalon2008]

Pretty sure your going to need the injector resistor pack. Also im running a JMF SMIM so that wont be a problem.

 

[95gst16g]

Yeah you deff. need the injector resistor pack I just took off a couple of the solinoids off the firewall and all those vacume lines my bay is still cluttered I wish I was smart enough to do a fusebox relocation!

I know that, I just didn't look at his profile.

 

[dsmtalon2008]

Ha, sorry my profile is not up to date. Shep Trans. Ross/Eagle Block. HX40. CH3OH Injection. Pump Gas - edgar, Nebraska is my car domain profile
