    Dumb Question

    Can I start and move my car with the bipipes removed? Obviously I know it will start but I just want to make sure I can move it (only going into 1st and reverse) without damaging anything. Thanks guys

    Might need to unplug the MAF as the ECU will be completely confused as to why its not seeing air flow and likely wont stay running. Just keep debris out of the open pipes and you should be fine. Of course that is pending "moving it" just mean a super short distance and not actually driving it somewhere.
