There's no reason to remove the ABS,just a minor re-shaping of the pipes to the master cylinder is required.

depends what you are using it for ........If for the road as a daily, I would keep it. If for the track I would leave it out or make it switchable !!

Definitely more work to remove it compared to reshaping or remaking the pipes to the master cylinder.
It's been mentioned on here before, that if it's going to be MOTd you will need to remove every trace of the system for a pass.

thanks for the replys
so looks like its more trouble than its worth, going to be remaking all the lines in the future so could possible tidy it a bit that way
