Default Benefit of !EGR & !Air, Info Please

I have read how to remove and cap off the vaccum on intake. I like the missing clutter of all that sh*t, but after removed, will I throw any codes or do I need LS1 edit to reprogram something? Oh yeah, the expandable plug for the intake from the EGR inlet, until the LS6 intake arrives and block off plates. TIA.

That's what I was affraid of, unfortunately thanks. Is there any performance gains other than a cleaner looking engine bay and a couple pounds weight loss?

yea you will throw codes, but as long as its a steady light you will be fine, autozone will scan for free and tell you what codes you are throwing. LS1edit will get ride of these codes.

Yep you will throw codes. Just go have the deleted as I am. Well till I get it tuned I have a constant SES light. Oh well. I've been quoted $75 to go in and delete unwanted codes such as missfire and AIR EGR stuff.

Other than a little weight off the front end (Which is where you want it off) and the cleaner engine compartment, there are no increases that I am aware of, I am going to remove mine tonight. I already have the codes deleted with LS1 edit though. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
