Just unhook it at the butterfly flap (hooks on like a accel cable), it won't throw any code. I just fed mine into a hole in the chassis rail (I have pic somewhere) or you can pull it up and leave it in the boot lining.
*edit* here's the pic:

Opens a valve in the stock exhaust system when the big mother-fucken turbo kicks in for more flow.
They have similar systems on new BMW's and the Vette ZR1. The B4 was ahead of its time.

The Ford model T probably had one. But still cool.

No.
Unless it throws a CEL code. Then I would leave it plugged in.
