Why would I disable the EPC system?

The EPC system reduces engine performance in 2nd/3rd gear and is only there to meet emissions requirements.

Why would I disable the SAS? The SAS works together with the catalytic converter in the exhaust cans, also to reduce emissions. If you have aftermarket cans it is pointless and can cause problems. Removing the SAS is not recommended with standard cans.

Why would I remove all of this stuff rather than just disable it?

Because it is unnecessary, ugly, messy, restricts access to the engine, and because it is something else to go wrong, something

else you won't have to consider if you do have problems. The repair manual actually warns that the EPC valves will malfuction if they are exposed to vibration.
