What's the point in leaving the EGR/AIR components in when you're installing headers without the provisions? Get yourself a set of $20 block-off plates and delete the tube, valve, and solenoid. Same with the AIR...remove it all and block off the 5/8" hole left in the intake ducting.

Either way you'll need to have the SES light tuned out. You have OBDI, so something like Tunercat, TunerPro RT, a mail-order tune from PCMforless.com or Madtuner, etc.
