Hey fellows, 

Would unplugging the "plug" connected to the EGR actually preventing it from working? The big question here is, if unplugged, would it still remain open or closed forever?

I also saw people suggesting cutting a small portion of a soda can and put it in-between the EGR and the engine to block the flow. Is that a better approach?

How much of improvement would I notice? Thanks!

(Lupo 23yo w/ straight pipe welded (cat stolen) and a functional egr (so far))

Removing EGR on a petrol (gasoline) car has no effect. At high power, EGR is always disabled by the ECU. However, it will cause carbon buildup. So I guess removing it will help long term power gains.
