EGR question

[BobbyZ72]

Ok, no one in general tech could help me, ive asked several times in the past month in diffrent topics. So now im asking here. Is there a way to disable the egr? Can i just crimp the egr hoses? Can i simply unplug it. At what times is the valve closed??? im guessing when the engine is cold. For those of you that have removed the valve, what have you used to block the holes? I just feel its silly trying to reburn exhaust. I dont care it it brings on the ses light, as long as the car still runs good. Im looking to see if i get a hair more power, a better gas milage. Thanks for any help

ZZP sells block off plates.
Removing it will cause worse gas milage and higher burning temps

Do you even know what it does? It's there for a reason. It's not just there to try to reburn exhaust.

No and No. Do some reading about it. ;)

If you really want to remove it (I'd leave it there if I were you), get the blockoff plates.

Moving to intake/exhaust (a search there would've helped ;) ).
