The secondary air pump only runs for the first minute, when the engine (and cats) are cold, so the only performance gain is the mild weight loss potential from removing the system, if you so choose.

It's really only worth bothering with if you're going to go to a catless exhaust to avoid the check engine light issue. Any shop with a PST2 or PIWIS can do it, but you'll never get a dealer to do it for you as it's something they're "not supposed to do."

If you find an independent shop with a PST, they'll need your DME and immobilizer codes (which you'll have to get from your dealer, after providing proof of ownership of the car).
