I want to plug the hose that runs from an outlet on the bottom of the inlet plenum down to the charcoal filter that sits inside the offside front arch and the I believe to the offside rear arch, has anybody had any problems after blanking this off and removing it all? its on my rally car and I could do with getting rid of it all..thnx

You will need to leave the charcoal canister pipe unblocked (obviously you'll need to block the pipe that goes to the inlet), else you'll develop vacuum in the tank as the fuel level drops, and the engine will stall from fuel starvation when the fuel pump can't overcome the vacuum.
