Before I removed my EGR, I turned it off by putting a BB in the vac line, and taking a soda can and cutting a plate out of it and installing it between my Intake Maniforld and the EGR Valve. I used 2 EGR gaskets, one on each side of the soda can plate.

My dad has used the Soda can plate on all his cars, that way no one can see that the EGR has been blocked, and its easly removed (on Gassers) for SMOG testing.
