Default Re tune for Pacesetter LT?

As it stands right now I have Edlebrock shorties with one small exhaust leak. I'm looking to replace with some Pacesetter LT. I'll have to delete the EGR.

Is there performance issues of not retuning for !EGR or is it just an SES light?
Is there any issue with not retuning for LTs?

You should always have it retuned for it to be correct but you could probably get away with it for awhile. As far as the EGR setting off a code and whether or not that will cause the car to have performance disadvantages I can't say for sure. I tune my own cars so I've never neglected to tune it out.

I believe you can also get a resistor at radio shack and put it in the EGR harness connector to prevent it from throwing a code. I'm not sure which type of resistor you need to get, but I know I did it. You could probably find it with a search. It would be a cheap way to resolve that issue until you can get it tuned out in the PCM.
