You need to put the air compressor in other place to have a true performance quad exhaust. You cannot simply delete the air compressor without converting all the rear suspension to a conventional one. Check my THREAD.

But do you have any detailed pics of the job? Where you put it and exactly what you needed to do to make it work?

To make it work you don't need anything. It already works... If the wires and vaccum lines don't reach the compressor you just need to extend them. My is behind rear bumper carrier, at the middle. The carrier has a U shape, and it was needed to cut one side (L shape) in the place of the compressor to fit. It was also made bracket supports for the compressor. Today i would mount it in the stock muffler place. More space and easier to do.
