ok i have a 4k-c which i am now swapping back to the original carby in an attempt to get it to run with all the might of a 4k
my problem is i have a set of 4 into 1 extractors (i didnt buy them) with no exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) thingy, so im wondering, if by some divine intervention i work all this shit out, will the fact i have no EGR create any issues for me?
thanx guys

no it wont, just make sure you block off the pipe that pumps exhaust into your inlet.

Hello,
With respect to the above question, does the lack of this EGR cause any problems with the vehicle passing an engineering inspection for registration purposes? I also have extractors with no EGR on my 18RG, but noticed one on the exhaust manifold of the 18RC i removed.
Cheers, Pomey!

technically, a vehicle being engineered should have better to equivalent emissions to this vehicle in original trim. so really, EGR should be used, but you could get away with it. I know I have passed rego with EGR inoperable, but then again, it looked connected, with the vac. hoses still in place.

Yeah i guess that makes sense. Do know happen to know if it's possible to have an EGR fitted to extractors?

ive got the 4k up and runnin without the egr and the rest of the vacuum system seems to be working properly aswell now, when i got my safety cert to get it re-registered a few months back i had the egr off (extractors on) and just put vacuum pipes onto different bits and peices, today i set it all up properly. i dont know with getting a car engineered but i would say getting a safety cert they wouldnt actually look close enough to notice
thanx for the replys guys
