To cut a long story short the previous owner removed the standard airbox. They have left the air pump connected so no warning light etc. what does this air pump do? And would it affect performance if not connected up? Have searched but seems to be mixed opinions on what it actually does

Or, you have to disable using PPS2000 (it's inside BSI parameter), then remove the pump. No use for this except raising pollution...

Exactly my thought. Trying to return to standard airbox. Slowly building it all back up from various parts
