Default can i remove my EVAP system?

I want to get rid of my EVAP (evaporative emissions control) system because i'm trying to clean up my engine bay. I realize i do need this to pass inspection (i believe). basically can i remove it and will it have any negative effects on my engine if i do?

what year car?

i think you will throw a code, and the means running in gimp mode.

another way to get rid of it and not throw codes is to run Hondata.

I didn't have mine on my old EG.

Never tossed a code and I passed inspection.

But I also passed inspection being 1'' off the ground, a Greddy Evo exhaust, no front license plate, and many other failalbe offenses.

So I dunno!

I've never completely removed an evap system but on alot of vehicles theyre easy to relocate somewhere hidden.
