I think Steve is talking about the Exhaust Gas Return (EGR) valve on the exhaust manifold. Yes you can blank it off and there are threads about it in here, just do a search for EGR.
There is also an easy tweek you can make to the injector pump that will make it easier to drive. Details are listed on this site and it's the alteration to the diaphram you're looking for. Best not try it in stages and keep an eye out for black smoke from the exhaust on hard acceleration. This is only unburnt fuel and if you see it then just back off the diaphram a little.
We did it to Gords Disco at the Belgium National this year and it took about 5 mins. He said he noticed quite a difference on the way home. :wink:
Anything you're not sure about, just ask. We can normally supply the answers, sometime with photos as well. :D

I hate to put a downer on your sales pitch Robbie, but I think you missed this post on page one! :D :wink:

Just to let you know everyone that I bought it. Steve did a great job of haggling and I got it for £2300.
Fantastic. I am OVER the MOON. Cant remember last time I was so happy.
Cant wait to play in it now at the weekend.
