Deleting the decel valve

I am considering leaving out this valve when I re-install the upper manifold. From my research it seems there are two ways to go about this. Can you folks please check my logic.

Option 1
Remove the valve completely and cap off all vacuum ports associated with it. Two on the upper manifold and one on the throttle body.

Option 2
Leave everything in place with the exception the center hose on the backside, ala JFairman I believe.

Option 3
There seems to be some chatter about reversing it and venting to atmosphere?

Pros to removal
1. simplicity - getting to the hose clamp on the backside was a pain

Con to removal
1. No boost hold between shifts

Personally the added noise theater isnt a concern of mine. Will any post change adjustments need to be made, idle setting etc?

Thanks for the help folks, sorry for all the noob posts.
