has anyone completely removed their egr system. i live in fl so i dont have to worry about inspections. the reason i ask is because i need to know if the car will run fine without it. i removed the egr system on my 94 tt supra and put a resistor in line to trick the computer into thinking its hooked up. so if anyone has, what resistor is needed. also i have a sensor that im pretty sure was connected to the system and i wanted to know if this needs to be plugged in in order for the car to run. i have a post on here already about the problems im having with the motor and i just to see if anyone else has removed their egr. thanks

I'm not sure how it will effect the mpg. I removed it off the supra and didn't really notice any loss in mpg but then again I already only get 16-18 mpg in the city. The egr is just exhaust gas return. It takes some of the gases coming out of your exhaust and "recycles" it back in tge combustion chamber to burn off and excess fuel that didn't get used the first time around. I quess it could affect you mpg but I really can't see it being a whole lot. Just my two cents.
