EGR Question...
For NA cars do you need to add a resister when doing a EGR blockoff, to prevent throwing a code? I'm searching and getting conflicting info!
Thanks
Thanks

Is this for SC300 or SC400?
I would like to know this as well. I would like to lose my egr but have to still pass NY state inspection which means no codes allowed

Here in chicagoland anything 96 and newer is subject to OBD2 scanner emissions. I did the PHR plates and the radioshack resistor on my 97 and it has never coded. Big brother requires emission testing around here every two years. I've passed twice so far...the second time with a rear O2 simulator (sshhh, our little secret)! I feel bad for you cali guys with visuals though... that sux

This might be a stupid question but, is the resistor installed into the EGR temp sensor circuit?
I've had my EGR off for awhile now. I plugged the top half of the valve in to keep the CEL from coming on straight away but it will still come on after a few highway cruises.
If I'm not mistaken, the ECU uses the temp sensor to determine if the EGR is actually doing anything........?????
