is there any air coming out of the EGR valve where you have taken the pipe off??

Might have been better to leave pipe on and crimp it??

No what I mean is think air is possibly seeping through the vacuum hose when it would normally suck to open the valve

Is it worthwhile regardless to close egr valve permanently? would save inlet manifold gunking up wouldn't it. Im tempted to shut it permanently via ecu programming. What are pro's and con's?

No idea of whether it's a good or bad thing to do

No 1 here is the PRESSURE CONVERTER which I believe there is another one just the same near the turbo

I think it has an air filter on it too from reading other threads....is the noise coming from this?
