Default Few questions!

I have deleted my air pump and my EGR. I also have a moroso CAI and it now has a hole in it from where i believe it recieved air from the air pump. What do i do with the hole? Plug it or what?

Also i now have a hole in the passenger side head, it seems a sensor needs to go there but i dont remember any sensors on the passenger head. Where can i get a plug for this?

I got a bypass plug assortment from autozone in the help section, one of those fit I can't remember the size though.

any hardware or autoparts store will have one. It is just a pipe plug.

It's either 1/4 or 1/2...not positive - they can't be more than a buck a piece - get one of each.

it is 3/8 pipe thread. cut the bung off your cai and epoxy a small piece of plastic over the hole. this is what i did to mine after removing the air and egr.

if you have a local race shop they'll usually have them, AutoMeter sends 3 or 4 with their temp gauges so they are available. Be sure use a little teflon tape.
