I have always wondered where you guys are tucking the EVAP canister or if you are removing it:

1. Exactly what are you removing / adapting (including pipes / wiring)
2. What effect does this have at MOT / testing time
 
I would hate to learn that the evap canister was being taken off just to make the engine bay look pretty. That part is an important environmental protection device. Without it one would be allowing much more pollution into the environment.

Also by leaving it on the car does not take away from performance once the engine is warm.

Regarding MOT, I would think you need it. As far as relocating it, I don't see any issue with that regarding passing MOT, but check your local regulations before attempting it. [it is already in a fine spot imho]
 
Its just one of these things I see everyone getting rid of from the bay but it never gets mentioned of where it gets relocated to or if it gets removed !

All I want to know is what everyone does with it !

the reason I asked about testing / MOT is the same reasons you state above tama ! I thought it would fail emissions test plus its harmful to environment.
 
^^ totally understand, wonder what they do with it, hope its just relocated and not take off. Im following this one for sure. :)
 
This is a response i got elsewhere...............

take it out and either cap the line or leave it vent from the tank not sure if it will effect your emissions we dont have to test for them where i live so.....

Pretty useless

yeah, that is not good to take this off, nor would it pass MOT/Emissions.
And people wonder why birds fall from the sky.
