I don't have any links to a pictoral view of the turbo though

Have you used a BB in the egr line or tried one of Brian's cover plates (for testing purposes!) ?

Oh yes, clicking your signature line comes up with
"The requested article was not found"
Thanks ... I feel stupid for not knowing this, but what does the switchover valve look like? For some reason I thought it was closer to the ALDA, which is why I guess I couldn't find it. I can't look in there right now because I'm at work, but I'll look in the morning.

As for my EGR, somehow a pin got stuck in that line, disabling the EGR ... I don't know anything about it, though, if anyone asks ...

Like I said, I'm not really worried ... I just want to see if cleaning the line makes any difference, since a lot of people have found that.

As for my article, I'm afraid the newspaper Web site "archived" it so you can't access it anymore. Kept meaning to take that dead link out of there. Wish I could find another copy online, but I don't think it's posted anywhere anymore, and I don't work for that newspaper anymore. I'll see if I can find it anywhere. I was so proud of that silly piece.
