also with a 20 year old EGR system how much is it really doing ?

That's like asking whats the 20 year old fan shroud doing dude.

I am no mechanic and dont know about alot of diffrent systems...

So by your comment i am assuming the EGR system is not something that breaks or loses effiency ?

ah ok, btw I hav e known several people that have totally removed their egr system and this did not cause any adverse effects.
Okay I just called my old LACR (Los Angeles Circuit Racing) buddy and he told me that he saw a slight, very slight, increase in performance. He told me you just have to make sure you cap off every point, like the BSV valve, make sure you cap it or you gunna radiator coolant spraying everywhere :-)
The charcoal caister does exactly what you stated, it brings fumes in that are evaporating inside the Gas tank and filters them into the engine.. It is also part of the new EVAP testing that is happening in California.
Since you dont have to worry about smog feel free to remove it. Have fun

depending on the engine you can start pinging if you remove the egr from the raised combustion chamber temps

mkiiisupra · 03-15-2008, 03:06 AM

That was my fear anyways, Cy. Could you elaborate more on what would cuase that?

I run 93 octane and 14* timing will probably change that back to 10* once i install my emange and tweak my timing advance through that.

Also with a emanage system controlling fuel/ignition/timing wouldnt that help to prevent pinging?

Well I believ he is using the 7M-GTE, or are you referring to the age, wear and tear factors. I belive retarding the timing should help with that problem..or is

See I was thinking it all had something to do and wasn't positive you could do that. Obviously not if you need emissions. Good Luck.

Yes i am running the 7mgte, and i have heard both things as far as what removing it does.... lol some people say it would actually rob you of power and others say it gave them some lol....
