You don't want to remove that noise if you intend
to keep it on the street.

I can't explain all of that, thank god. I have never had to mess with it.
You need the egr. This isnt an old ford or a chevy.
These cars need all of that to breath functionally.

Is the best I can tell you. I don't want to be telling you lies.
I'm just the a$$hole

Where's Chambers when ya need him. HE may be able to explain it he's wise beyond me there, I hope. Like. Not....., my field.

Also you may pm mr.nickleye. He will know for sure and will respond when he gets on.

We have no emissions here. My only concern is that the EGR and canister serve more of a purpose than simply lower emissions

Something about helping to lower internal temperatures by recirculating exhaust gasses how that works i have no idea.... also with a 20 year old EGR system how much is it really doing ?

Ifs its necessary then the next question would be how do i check it out to make sure its working properly

oh and asshole, i think not but that other guy you keep talking to sure is....

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

[mkiiisupra]

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 ?

Me or the putz in the other thread, the mitsubishi weirdo?

the mistsu dude

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]

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
