The computer will throw codes w/o the EGR.... I used the supplied block off
plate from the Steiger Install Kit for the header end... then just left the
electrical part connected to the wiring harness... so far no codes, I'm
still looking to find out the exact way the EGR valve thingy works so that I
can stick a resistor or somethin another into the wiring harness to get rid
of the elec. doohicky thing.. as far as vacuum lines, I plugged several and
put a few into the vacuum manifold just making sure that there was a vacuum
source to everything..

ps. please excuse all the technical jargon ;-)
