ok, yeah... ripping off emissions is illegal...
egr is only disaled at WOT if its actually working correctly...
regardless, it still heats up the back of the rear piston: bad
egr basically adds dead space to the cyl to prevent more combustable material from getting in there, supposedly keeping temps and detonation down. ive found it's quite hopeless at doing this, and more improvement was made through good fuel, and proper tuning, prventing major lean mixtures, and hot cyl temps.
as for egr's role in reducing emmisions... no argument there. however, if you tune the car right in the firstplace, your emissions shouldn be too bad anyway
