Default EGR intake Plug

Need to plug intake after I delete EGR with HPTuner, is there a GM part or do I have to fab something? I figure I'll have to make a blockoff plate for exhaust.
Will EGR delete help performance or just keep intake clean?
Any help appreaciated.

go and buy a 1-3/8" freeze plug at auto store and use that for the intake.

use GM part# 12558346 for the intake. you can get the exhaust manifold plug from some of our sponsors but i just made one out of 1/4" steel.

I doubt taking EGR off helps performance to much, but it does keep your gas pedal from sticking and the intake very clean. I think it's worthwhile.

Thanks for the info, I went to Dealer and ordered intake plug.
Anyone know where I can buy an exhaust blockoff plate? I've check e-Bay
and some other sites. I don't have the resource's to make one now,
would like to buy one.

Thanks for the Help.
