Re: EGR mod.... I vote do it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Not sure how many horses but it has to be worth something. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
I just removed the dumb thing all together 1 hour ago. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

It also helps put dirty filthy unfiltered exhaust gases all over your throttle body, intake manifold,valves,entire intake tract and everything else downstream. Other than that you can eat off of it. If the EGR is such a great idea why do you think they only put it on one bank of your engine instead of both banks? The EGR is only there to keep Uncle Sam at bay.

Re: EGR mod.... You will have a constant SES light but it won't hurt performance at all.
It's simple to do as well. You need a 1 3/8" expandable rubber plug to plug off the hole in your intake manifold and a block off plate for the EGR to header connection. Unbolt and unplug and your done. Maybe a 10 minute job tops. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
