EVAP canister... do I need it?
I was just wondering what this thing does. I'm getting a custom exhaust made and I need to relocate this thing somewhere, I know GReddy moves it to the middle, but I need to make the exhaust first, before I can make the bracket to relocate the canister.
So my main question is, can I remove this for like a day, just to drive it to the muffler shop and drive it back. Then get a bracket or something made. What exactly does the EVAP canister do?

It's basically a piece of smog equipment. This is a canister filled with charcoal that evaporating gas from your gas tank will vent to. There is a good reason not to top off your gas tank as this cannister can become filled with gas fumes.
whether you need it or not is up to you. While I have not seen the one on my G, I had to replace the canister on my SHO as it kept messing up my Canp solenoid valve
