Ae93 sx airbox delete

[Willobeard_bv]

Hey guys I'm new to corollas but recently picked up a 89 ea93 sx hatchback and wanted to do a airbox delete and put a pod filter on it the only drama is that there is all sorts of sensors and vacuum hoses on it.

Question 1 - what are these ?

Question 2 - can i remove them all ?

My 2 cents don’t do it. 

The various sensors are there to give the ecu info it needs to run the engine optimally, and keep it idling properly. It probably already has a cold air feed from inside the guard. 

Pod filters make it noiser, suck hotter air inside the engine bay, plus it’s a defect if you get pulled over. 

A better bet is to find a high flow element for your stock airbox, and change it regularly
