Off topic, but a free bump... How did you plug the hole in the intake manifold?

Get a 1 3/8 inch freeze plug from autozone.

I haven't heard about a way to get the SES off wihtout a tune or tuning software.

I don't think anyone has ever tried to rig that. Cover the light with some electrical tape, or get the tune fixed.

I have been living with it, its no big geal. The only way to really get rid of it is a tune.

Just curious why you guys want to totally remove the EGR, you can restrict the hole size at the manifold and get most of the power back and no SES light. Not to mention the EGR shuts off at WOT anyway.

Cleans up the look of the engine bay and keeps the intake cleaner because you are not inputting soot from the exhaust anymore.
