covered many times.

EGR wont effect performance while having it disconnected..... but you will get a CEL for it. You can cover it with the block off plate...... you can make an extension, and bolt up the EGR......

exhaust gas recirculation

it spits exhaust gas into the intake to cool the combustion temps

What the EGR valve does is channel a measured amount of exhaust gas back into the combustion chamber to lower combustion temperatures. Like hosing down a fire. What this accomplishes is to lower Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) emissions and can often increase fuel mileage.

you can block it off. but you'll throw an EGR code, and you might lose some gas mileage.
