Emergency Relief Valve Alternatives

I'm thinking of cleaning up the intake on my standard turbo engine. Removing the EGR and AAC, but what about the ERV?

I've seen setups where the ERV (POV) has been removed, what are the consequences of doing so?

I was using this one at one stage, very good quality: http://www.t1motorsport.com/node/546

Not running it anymore as using a different manifold which doesn't have the provision for the relief valve. The relief valve is there for safety, but many people think it is overkill and blank it off when tidying the manifold up.

I removed mine since I was happy to take the risk of relying on the turbo's waste gate to provide my safety margin from over boost.

No original internal wastegate. I was going to go external but happy enough with the performance.
