I would guess that depends on where you live.
Where I am there are no emission inspections.
I recently put headers on the car, and therefore the air pump was rendered
usless and removed.
You can also plug your manifold or pick up a manifold off a 73 or 74.
I can't say I have noticed any increase in power without the air pump or
with the headers.
