XSLT never updates a source tree in place, so you can't really remove
elements. You can make a copy of the tree, that doesn't contain this
element, so all you need to do is not copy these elements. By default no
elements are copied, so how exactly you need to stop copying them
depends on what code you are using that _is_ causing them to be copied.

It may be as simple as adding the line

<xsl:template match="Product[starts-with(@code,'TT')]"/>



Or it may not. If your stylesheet is an identity transform (copied from
the XSLT spec or the FAQ or archives for this list) then adding that
template will prune those product elements.
