i have studied all available sources and know about the basics of egr deactivation
 but i still have some questions:1. is it sufficient for deactivation to just cut and block the hose between actuator and egr-valve? or do i have to use those block plates some shops are selling? 2. there are people saying that a non-functioning egr can destroy the cat (burning caused by too high temperatures). is that true with the metal cat on my st205? |

I didn't realize that Euro ST205's had an EGR system. |

agreed, what EGR?
And the problems with EGR is that on OBDII or later cars, the failure of the EGR system will set your fuel maps to a defualt, "limp" mode, and so more creative means to fake the ECU are required. -------------------- -Mike

i think hes talking about the vsv. if so yes cut the pipe and block both ends with a bolt and jubilees, but the wuestion is why do you want to do this? are you fitting a boost controller?

no, doesn't have anything to do with the vsv!
since uk-celicas are jdm-imports they might not have an egr - at least japanese models don't have one! german models have egr and i would like to cut it off because the engine should run smoother and cleaner without it. |
