Efi Computer Eliminating the emission equipment from a 1992 Ford Thunderbird 302 V8?
What do i need to do to remove the emission equipment from a 1992 ford EFI v8? Will the computer need to be re calibrated or will it figure it out?
I am planning on keeping the 02 sensors since they help meter the fuel and economy, but would like to eliminate the smog pump if possible, for performance gains. (there are no smog inspections where i live)
Although there may be no smog inspections in your area, ALL automobiles must be equipted with the federalized smog equipment. To remove that equipment is a federal offense and is punishable by fine and jail time.
If you were to be stopped in say California and the CHP officer wanted to be a less than nice person you could end up with a very very expensive ticket.
Any other states the same thing is true -- if they wanted to be -- highway patrol could go as far a impounding your car for non compliance.
Besides all that your car will not run correctly because the sensors will see an imbalance in the exhaust air mix and throw the whole system off.

EFI System Partition Issues While Installing Windows
Hard drive partition that is used by systems using EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) is termed as EFI System partition. Such partitions are formatted using FAT variant. They hold information like device driver files, boot loader and system utilities that are required before loading Windows. It is recommended to take EFI System partition as the first one while partitioning the disk. However if any other partition like MSR (Microsoft Reserved Partition) or data partition is being used as the first partition, it may lead to Partition Recovery needs. Systems using first partition, which is other than EFI system partition, are observed with certain issues while users attempt to install Windows XP (Professional edition) or Server 2003 (Datacenter and Enterprise editions) on Itanium based system. In such cases, few error messages can be seen together with that text-mode part of Setup may not work at all. This particularly is observed if setup itself or user tries to create EFI System partition.
Solution
Computer systems implementing Intel Itanium architecture with Intel microprocessors are called Itanium-based systems.
The solution requires to backup all the ESI system partition’s and first partition’s data first. It is also recommended to check backup status with respect to media integrity and holding all required files. However if users loses partitions data with out good backup, Partition Recovery Software can help recovering lost data.
