Does anyone know if removing said stuff and just venting the tank normally and plugging the intakes would upset the tuning?
The evap/charcoal stuff doesn't do any harm, I don't know why people bother removing it.

Now, if it has one of those air injection systems into the exhaust to burn unused fuel, then that can interfere with getting a power commander set right.
