Dblock Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 I'm not sure on a decat but I see no problems with an egr blank, apart from having the EML on..On my tdi, I just cut the vacuum hose and plugged it with a golf tee.

Al3xTee Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 On my tdi, I just cut the vacuum hose and plugged it with a golf tee. No EML or egr. Much of a difference in sound and/ or throttle response? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 Much of a difference in sound and/ or throttle response?Nope. I don't think it really makes a big difference but at least it's not being gunked up by the egr. Seemed slightly more eager higher up but that could be placebo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uggi Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 I blanked mine at the exhaust end, just to stop the crud filling the inlet side (it was a mess!) no big difference noticed, and no EML on either? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
