I just recently removed mine. Most people either fabricate or buy a metal plate that blocks the hole. Of course, it's a little different on an SN95 than the fox. I got a cheap metal cap to cap off the header where the EGR tube was attached.

To keep the CEL from getting tripped, I just used my tweecer to tell the computer that there was no smog or EGR on the car. That took care of that problem. Buyt most people that don't "tune" it out will either buy or make their own resistor to plug in and fool the computer into thinknig it is there and working normally.

is you spacing that angles thing?? its many to angle the tb more towards the fender were you filter is at.... if u have a hose that will seal up with it off u should be fine... or if u want the sure hting is a plate like samseed said and cap on teh header... thats what i will be doin

Samseed where the hell Did you find the cap for theheader. I cant find one anywhere so I cut my tube in half that connects from my header to valve and I crimped it shut. That is temporary. I as well blocked off my egr valve with a cut out piece of a license plate.
