If it only does it until there is heat in the engine it's probably a knackered secondary air pump. Either delete it. Or do what I did and take it off and repair it using bolts instead of the rivets that are there from the factory.

Search and you will find a guide for it.

On the subject of a SAI delete, is there anything else needed other than a blanking plate?

I've looked at the ultimate guide on Vortex, but as it covers PCV simplification, brake booster mod and EVAP delete as well as SAI delete I can't work out what is actually being removed for each of them :undecided:

From what I've read you don't need to, it will throw up an fault code regardless of whether or not one is fitted.
