Default E.G.R. blocking plates

I'm looking at getting some EGR blocking plates for the car and my question is, is this all I need? Just these three plates and I can remove the pump and hoses and all that crap? Just curious before I buy...

Thanks-Justin

For the Egr removal you will need the blockoff plate for the passenger side manifold, and a freeze/expansion plug for the intake manifold, i beleive a 1 3/8 size plug will do the trick. The egr system only takes one blockoff plate, if you are talking about removing the air pump as well then yes you would need the other two plates for both manifolds as well. Then all you need to do is pull out the air pump hoses and pump itself. I would do both of these if you are thinking about it, no performance gains to be had, but definately a lot cleaner looking engine bay. You can make the plates yourself or can buy them from LS1Speed, oh by the way taking off the egr will set your ses light unless you get it tuned out with LS1 Edit.
