451 Secondary air system delete

Howdy everyone!

So I have googled, search this forum and evolutions site and my results have been nill... lol

I have an ‘09 and got the P0410 code so I looked in engine bay and have a vacuum hose nipple busted off. I live in a non emissions area and have thoughts of a turbo in the future so instead of buying a egr control valve I’m interested in reading a system delete write up and buying what ever parts needed say, block off plate, resistor thing and some plug stuff.

Any help with direction, links and or parts to buy would be fantastic!

Thank you so much for your time...

Should be really easy to remove the air pump and block off the inlet. Would be nice to not have to listen to the air pump run every time you fire up the car cold.

It will trip a check engine light if you do not put some sort of resistance to the connector though. The euro cars with the turbo do not have this emission system.
