dude, i blanked my egr on my 97 300tdi 90 i also put the decat pipe in and i can tell you it is like a different motor... smoother with better power delivery and a marginal increase in mpg

Blanked mine and also cleaned the inlet manifold and intercooler . Still got the cat on although I have removed the viscous fan , so all the mods give smoother power delivery

you can use defender non cat 300 tdi down pipe £15ish ,egr just put a tin gasket with no hole between egr and manifold costs nothing,down pipe esr2297 straight fit,added advantage is that you dont have to use front chassis mount as has no flexi

if you are going to fit the EGR then take the time to do it right!

fit the blanking plate and ditch the whole EGR assembly, fit a new top inlet hose without the spur, remove and clean out the intercooler and inlet plenum. change the air filter

Just had the MOT done on my 51 plate TD5 disco. De- Egr'd , De-catted and tuned by dynachip. Sailed through the MOT with better figures than last year pre the mods. Think it is post 2001 that it is needed but could be worng.
