They block off a port or passage when you remove whatever it was that was supposed to be there.

Does anybody sell a block off plate for the EGR, or do you have to make them yourself?

Thanks, Pengaru!

I ordered my EGR blank-off plate today from k2rd. I know I could make my own, but for only $15 including shipping, the store-bought unit is quick & easy.
