I wouldn't worry about it, unless it clogs and starts to throw P codes on you. You would need block-off plates, remove the hoses, and a tune to remove the codes from the PCM. Tuning a 96 gets funky, as you have to use a 97 PCM sometimes. I don't think it's worth it unless you are having troubles with the system. Being as old as the car already is, you won't be keeping the engine any cleaner by removing it now.
KYB makes pretty nice struts for the car, with OEM style springs would ride nice. Also make sure you check the rear bump stops, as those tend to degrade really quickly on these cars and make the car sound like it's bottoming out over bumps.
Just noticed your profile says it's a convertible. Get a subframe connector too. I believe BMR makes a nice tubular one for your car.
