    why remove vacuum pump

    The vacuum system works great when running a custom tune designed to work with the vac system. Will the pump fail? Mine failed at 170k, but my alternator failed at 75k, should I remove my alternator? I chose to go with the A-team turbo instead of replacing the vacuum pump, but I had the...
