Default How do I remove IACV without throwing a CEL

I want to completely remove my IACV from the intake manifold (1 because it went bad and cleaning isn't helping any and 2 because I recently got an IM without a spot for it) and I don't want to leave it plugged in and just hanging there... I want it completely gone. How can I do this without throwing a CEL? I am assuming I can fool the ecu into thinking there is one there by possibly wiring in some resistors... ? Anyone know?

A fixed resistance isn't going to do it. The ECU wants to control the idle.

Use Crome and use the Remove IACV plug-in. If you hex edit it is, dang I forgot.

Try http://www.pgmfi.org. It is well documented there.

What about with hondata? Anyone know if there is a simple option (like the rev limit deal) with hondata for IACV? S200 that is. What about s300? I've been thinking about getting the s300 because it would integrate with my carputer project a lot easier.
