Default EGR block off

I was wondering where I can find the block off plate for the intake manifold or what else I could use. I called the dealership and its discontinued, and parts stores dont have it like I though. And I'm obviously gonna have boost so the sticking a generic plug wont work will it? I guess Ill go check out the local junkyards too

Thanks

I got a nice aluminum one on eBay. I machined it out and put my IAT sensor in it.

I used an expanding rubber plug, it's a plug with a nut on one end, you put the plug in the hole and tighten the nut to expand it, works great. They can be found at plumbing and hardware stores, I think mine was $4.

Using the same thing. Not as fancy but it works. Only running 10lbs of boost on my motor, but no issues whatsoever with plug.

Ya, I only run 8psi, but when I first did the turbo I hooked up the wastegate backwards and hit 25+.....the plug held, unfortunately the pistons did not.
