Anyone here disable their egr system? What did you notice?

Also does anyone know any good articles on the pros and cons of disabling your egr system?

This crazy idea popped in my head about a J.R. supercharger for a b16 or b18.:D

:p Yeah I did... so did POS carb... I don't think it's a performance gain... it's just getting rid of crap you don't need... and if you've got an aftermarket header... they don't always come with the pipe hole...



Just unplug the vaccum from the EGR valve. and plug the hard line.

Good idea because the manifolds from the those engines fit the A20, but the problem is that the master cylinder is in the way and can not allow the pulley to work. I have emaild JR and they have been telling me I cant use one with the B18 I have for my Accord
:(

Only one that would work is a Vortech style S/C

Exhaust Gas Recirculation

I dont know exacly how its works but i know that its take gas
from the exhaust back into the combustion chamber to reduce
some nitrogenous acid.
