    Just a heads up.. That line that goes back up to the front goes into the intake. It does do something. If you leave everything alone up front, when the EVAP solenoid goes open .. You will be sucking air (without fuel vapor), post MAF... Just a heads up in terms of potentially causing lean conditions. And as stated below you will need a roll over check valve to pass track tech safety. Thanks for the vid!

    Fuel emissions from evap in the the vent can gum up your filters. (Same stuff that winds up in the crevices of your fuel door if you dont clean it often.) Point being, you gotta check and clean the vent filter often if you do remove the canister. Ethanol is worse than gasoline so if you run corn you should check it more often.

    Could you make a video showing all the intake ports that need to be capped? I have an idea, and I'm buying caps and zip ties tomorrow. But if you know off the top of your head, it would be nice. Doesn't seem to be any 07 STi evap system delete guides.

    Hollo Parker, i did it. All that started. I experience lag on acceleration. so when i whent to verify the canister cables it was broken. The resistor (50ohm) you put on connector is it the one with yellow/green,tan/yellow .
    after i gat to the engine side to verify the How to Test and Replace PCV Valve it was deleted so now i am looking at pouting a resiter there to if i can.

    If you do not put a rollover valve or check valve on the breather port, fuel will spill out of that hose in the event of a rollover or serious wreck. Very dangerous. I swapped a tank into my racecar and it wouldn't vent. Had to use a rollover valve.

    What is the purpose to remove this canister? I live in an area with snow and salt, I would think that little filter would get dirty fast. When filling gas at the pump seems like gas fluid goes down super slow causing the gas pump to kick out...Not sure what the cause is yet, I basically have to trickle my gas from a gas can to fill up my tank, currently the canister is removed. Any ideas? Bought the car like that.
