Jwink25 Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 Got a couple of questions for you guys... I have a 240Z with a 1982 turbo 2.8L engine. 1. If I remove the EGR valve and cap off the holes, will it make the car run bad? I will be using the stock ECU for a little while. Others have done this I am sure, I just want to be sure. 2. If I upgrade to a 240SX or the Big Throat TB, will the stock ECU run the car ok as well? I think I will need to adjust the airflow meter, right? Plus, I'll be running more boost, a TO4B, 3 inch DP, and other minor upgrades. Thanks, Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobythevan Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 As for question number 1, I plugged my EGR because I had to, threads in the manifold are no good. The car runs great with it plugged. It does not gain you anything, but does increase emissions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 240hybrid Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Question #2.....Im pretty sure that you just have to readjust/reprogram the throttle postion sensor (little black box on side of TB). Get a haynes rebuild manual and it should give all the instructions on how to do this. I know that the service manuals will tell you if the haynes doesnt. This doesnt take long at all.
