i removed my egr... i took the whole unit out plugged the outlet from the MAF, and plugged the .75" pipe coming from just below my manifold on the exhaust. after removing the unit and doing that i plugged the 2 lines in the intake manfiold that ran to the egr, now my car boggs and seems to go on some sort of pussy mode when i give it any more than 1/4 throttle... what did i do wrong!!!??

take out EGR==?!?!?! why'd u bother for 1/2hp? i'm no pro, but i'd say check all your vaccume lines again, make sure they are good, sounds like something's wrong w/ the vaccume nonsense. Or u took out the wrong stuff... ! Or that's what happens when there's no EGR =b

just go back and make sure u pluged everythin! from what u described u didnt actually remove the egr, just the emissions shit to the right of the exhaust mani. to remove the egr u gotta take out the 2 bolts from the actually egr on the pass. side intake mani(its a pain w/ motor in the car) then take the only brown colored piece of metal on that side off (egr is bolt to it) and have the hole welded up and put it back on, u know u got the egr when u removed the big pipe goin from the exhaust mani to the pass side intake mani, hope this helps if not sorry bout that. oh yeah u dont have to remve the whole pipe just cut bout 4 in from the exjasut mani and crip the pipe thas what i did!!!! car run great w/ no probs
