Welcome.... Is the car kicking out smoke when under load..? When was the air filter last changed..? It may be advisable to give it a good service and feed it some fuel injection cleaner.... then give it a good thrashing. A mate had one with the EGR valve stuck open - (smoked a bit!) - he...

Iain C You can just blank it off with a plate and leave the rest in place.... (I think the plate you can get from ebay is 2mm thick so should fit in between with the same bolts!) The kit I bought had a 6mm plate which is for total removal of the EGR) ...... if you look at the restriction the...
