Quick EGR question

If I remove all of my smog stuff will the EGR still function? If not, what do I need to do with it?

Use a block off plate in the manifold or the head.

And yes, the EGR will still function if you remove your other smog equipment. It is controlled by the ECM and is based on various "constraints" within the programming.

Also, if you DO wish to remove the EGR, you will have to disable it in the eprom and turn off the diagnostics. The best wasy to disable it is to adjust the "EGR MAT Temp Enable" to x'FD.
