The desmog kit from TLC Performance comes with 2 plugs where the BVSV's go. On a desmog, are these necessary at all? From what I've read on this forum, some members keep one or the other. What is the purpose of these, and should I just plug both of them up? Thanks!
Got the EGR blockoff plate installed this morning. Luckily the bolts came off easily enough, just had to go really slow to make sure none of the bolts or threads broke off. Getting the 2 longer bolts off the EGR cooler was a challenge since both were incredibly rusted. Luckily they came out...

Soon..;)
No. Is there one in prosper that is for sale? Do you know what the price is? I'd like to compare what price...
Definitely the worst de-smog I've seen. I'm in the DFW area. The picture below has the EGR nut completely rusted shut. I haven't tried to loosen it but would the TLC performance de-smog kit be best for this situation? Or the Man a fre kit? Has anyone used the man a fre kit with success? That's...
