There has been alot of debate about Blanking/blocking the EGR valve on inported mitsies and i belive there is alot of evidance to sugest thet it is not the best option, i have tried both the ball bearing in the pipe and the EGR blanking plate and found no dfferance in performance or smoke with them fitted but after i removed and cleaned it (it was jammed slightly open i think) all has been well.

Post by: Tiny Tim on March 16, 2005, 21:30:24: It will work - but not if the valve itself is stuck open which is the usual problem.

But - there is the suggestion this mod causes overheating and cracked heads.

No absolute evidence (eg rolling road datalogging) either way as yet.
