EGR fix on SD headers

So when I install my SD headers I am going to delete the EGR the proper way. Now I am thinking one of two ways. Way #1 is to weld the EGR port on the headers closed. The other option is to tap it and put a stainless plug in it. I am also going to tap and plug the LIM also when I have it out to do the gaskets.
 


I have to do this to. Was thinking of getting the blocks from ZZP or Intense (forgot which site had them) but ehh.... Would rather make it look better then that!!
 
I found some scrap alum and made my own block off plates for LIM and rear header a little rtv and works like a charm! No more annoying tick!
 


Along with the EGR I'm going to delete my rear O2 on my 99 when I put my motor in, in a couple weeks. Does it make it more difficult or easier to tune around having these sensors deleted or is it a moot point?
 
97-00 cars don't care about the rear o2, only 01+ cars use that rear o2 sensor for fueling.

Having no EGR will throw 3-4 codes, so those need to be tuned out and some people will lose a mpg or 2, but if you had a tuner and knew where to add timing in the "cruise cells" you can re-gain them back.
 


Nick..that doesn't cost enough! C'mon man. It's what you do, it's what I do, it's what we suggest to everyone.

Cheap, easy, done......works for me.
