When you remove the sensor, are you worried about the open hole there then? I'm thinking stuff will get in there and it's always turning so it can't be good. Any idea how to plug it? I temporarily just used some gorilla tape but would like to plug it somehow. And i can't reuse the speed sensor cz i hammered it off cz it was so stuck on there.

I wouldn't touch any of those sensors or wirings if I where you OP and if you are planning to boost you car. Exactly the same wiring will be used for traction control later for your aftermarket ECU. It saves you a lot of work and money. They don't do any harm anyway by leaving them now.

don't start a debate, that's not the point of this thread, he's doing it because he wants to.

I got this 'T' fitting from an SC300. Not sure what year it was because the 'T' was located at the rear driver side.

Instead of starting a new thread I thought I would try to get an answer here. I just deleted my ABS and now my EGR valve. I unbolted the canister located under the intake manifold. Does anyone know what to do this orange plug that was connected to the canister? Thanx in advance.
