EVAP canister captures gas fumes i think. You're in california. i think taking it off wouldn't be a good idea.

If your not in Cali then it is just another spare part on the car. Take it off. There are a few lines that run to under the car and you can trace lines for more emmissions crap back to the gas tank where there is a 2 way valve back there too. You can remove all them and it wont affect the drivablility at all.

if you take it off, i guess you dont need the Purge Cut Solenoid Valve on the intake manifold. Maybe you can just replace that with a 1/2 or 1 watt resistor.
