is this correct and if so, how about offering a "level 2" EGR kit
with the necessary plumbing to eliminate the Air flow meter completely
and plug the vacuum lines, etc......


I deleted it years ago, probably one of the first to do so. No gains in doing it, it just allows the car to make more noise at low throttle.

I stuffed a 617 air intake tube in there from a W126 car. Worked fine on the SDL
