Drawback to removing EGR valve.

[Militant-Grunt]

My 3" turbo back w/ magnaflow just got 20 decibels louder, AT LEAST. Car pulls better without it though . Worse is that my exhaust was already loud, now its just too much, borderline straight pipe. Need a resonator now.

Used the integrated engineering block off plate, easy to install. I eliminated most of the emissions hosing on the motor. I highly recommend this to anyone with a 2001+ 1.8t motor, it eliminated a lot of nonsense boost leaks and cleaned up the engine bay, much easier to work on. I'll take pics in the AM.

This is the DIY I followed:

that made ur exhaust louder? interesting

I've also done this and i highly recommend it too. Its nice not to have to deal with the SAI pump when ur routing ur FMIC piping

Better way to do this is by installing a AEB head, not only do you remove this valve you end up with a better flowing head for a BT and BAT setup.

*turns around looks at aeb head sitting on the floor*



Still waiting on monies from my old car, believe me I want to dig in already.
Had to sue the dirtbag that crashed into my 98.5

This is a great mod. Easy to do. And great benefits.

Damn, really? Did you sue for more than the value of the car?

Ofcourse, they only offered me the value of the car without mods. I am entitled to the entire value especially when I am not at fault.

only thing im not understanding with the BOV hose where does it plug into?

[nynoah]

BOV ?

[walky_talky20]

only thing I'm not understanding is why we're in a thread from 9 years ago?

@nynoah
BOV = Blow Off Valve, which in itself probably answers my question. ;)

Necro bumps are not bad. Beats repeating myself 200000 times

Did it take 9 years to discover SAI is indeed not an EGR?

[walky_talky20]

Lol. I think so.
