gulp valve and air pump

[Wyngaarden@aol.com]

Hey,
     Being rather new to late model mg's I'd like to have this emission
related question answered. What effect on performance is there with the air
pump and gulp valve removed? In case big brother is out there I bought the
car with these already gone.
     Thanx.
