EGR system on the POO

**neal** · 26-09-2008, 12:03 PM

i have just finished rebuilding my 7M Poo..and plan on ommiting the EGR system.
Main reason being: dont like exaust gases in my intake.

I know the ECU is going to throw an error 71...what are the issues performance and from day to day running this will cause.

I will be leaving the VSV pluged in and all, the only thing i doing is to block the exhaust port.

cheers

Blocked mine around 9 months ago & it has not thrown any codes or negatively affected performance.

Will it affect my engine lets say at cruising speed of 3000 rpm....when EGR is operational..

it recirculates some of the exhaust gases to be reburned, it was done for emmission reasons, it probably does effect power a bit but actual figures who knows. more than likely its all filled up with carbon by now anyways.
