Default Removing ABS

I am thinking about removing my ABS from my car. But I wanted to see if anyone on here has done that before and what there experiences where. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

why the hell would you want to do that? you are removing a safety and performance feature. abs brakes are better than non-abs.

ABS? Don't leave home without it! It has helped me on several occasions. Snow, rain, rough or loose surfaces are MUCH safer with ABS. You can hit the brakes and still steer.

Well, mainly because I just got my Injen intake that took like a month to get and technically it is the wrong one because it is for a integra without abs and I have abs. I got it in there, it just doesnt fit quite right because of the abs moduale and I really dont want to send it back and wait another month. I dont know, it works so I will probably not mess with the abs.

pulling out the abs would be way more of a pain in the ars than waiting to get the correct intake. not to mention that the abs will do way more for the handling and performance of the suspension than any intake will do for hp of the car.

True, allthough the seller of the intake just informed me that it is suppost to be for a car with abs. and it is a name brand. but it doesnt fit very good. WTF.[align=left] [/align]

either the seller is telling you lies, or is mistaken, or you didn't properly install it.

Yeah it is possible that the seller is lying. they do not seem to care to much. I wish I was not properly installing it. then that would mean that it is the right one. But I am afraid that installing an intake is far to easy. Either way I have it in, not bolted down, but in.
