EGR temp sensor is not a selenoid.

A selenoid just opens and closes.

Its a sensor that takes a reading,

Just get the temp sensor off the old motor and plug it onto the harness and tape it on so it does not swing around.

Removing EGR from an '00-'01 is going to get a low flow EGR code ...

It wont, you need a 16.5k resistor.

Purchase the 'lowport' egr blockoff kit, keep the egr seloniod top portion (the one with the green harness with like 8 pins), remove the temperature harness, and put the 16.5k resistor in between the two pins on the previous temperature female side, and voila.

Blocked off egr, no cel.
Word has it you run slightly rich when you dont have an egr system.

Revived from the dead - my 98 SE-R has an EGR delete and block off plate but is actually running LEAN. It also occasionally throws a MIL. I was thinking of re-installing the parts again.

What sold me on doing this mod with my engine rebuild was when I was taking the old engine apart, I took off the intake manifold and oily ooze poured out when I removed it, nasty!

You may have other issues that need to be diagnosed? You'd want to check your fuel pressure to make sure that is where it should be, replace fuel filter also.

I kept the EGR on my turbo 02' RR car. Codeless and runs just fine on the stock ecu. I'm not sure why you would go through all the trouble to delete it when you only need a manifold bung and tube to keep it stock on a turbo setup. Like Miko said it won't add HP to your wide open throttle anyway. But you might add some awesome light pedal cruising HP

Just throwing in my .02 but this is for the highport. I deleted it because i broke the EGR tube from the header. I feel like the car idles better, so I could say as a pro, less hoses to worry about cracking and causing a vac leak. I wasnt originally gonna delete it until the tube broke so I said fuck it. I'm running a Cali Ecu so i get a CEL because of the EGR Temp sensor, but I'm gonna swap to a Federal ECU to drop the CEL. Not as easy for the other engines I assume. However I wonder if i remove the temp sensor from the EGR tube and let it just sit in the engine bay if it'll drop the cel or stay there because the temps arent high enough on it....not sure how it decided to throw a cel or not.....if its a certain temp reading or just checking to see if the sensor is there.
