Default Cap for EGR tube ??

How can i cap off my header where the EGR tube goes ? Would a hardware store have a cap with threads on the inside ?

I wouldn't take off your egr valve. If you take it off the car actually runs hotter, and it is known to cause predetonation. Look it up on google.

All the EGR does is recirculate the exhaust gases, and only is open a small percentage of time. Everything is already blocked off too, all i need to do now is cap the header. Anyone know where i can get a cap to do so ?
