Ok going to try again last time I asked, the responses all were about removing all emissions equip. I have an inspection next year and don't want to do that!My question then is after Hpipe install (o/r) can I just block off my air check valve heading toward the hpipe or can I leave it open..air flow will be leaving this hose not sucking in. Will blocking this portion of the line off work ok?

yes. you can block it off. I have a catted x-pipe with the line blocked off, and the cats are still fine. I just recently removed all the smog stuff all together. You're not running cats so that pipe is pointless. If you're still running your smog stuff, you will just be blowing air into the engine bay and not the h-pipe, which is fine.
