I'm getting ready to install a JDM SR20 into my G20, and I don't want to install all of the EGR crap. I'm planning on using the JDM intake and exhaust manifold. Is it correct that if I connect the EGR and Canister Control Solenoid Valve to the sensors(but not the vacuum lines), that the car will not throw a CEL? Below is a quote from a thread I found while doing research on this.

Quote »EGR and Canister Control Solenoid Valves. There are only 2 of these things. They look like funky boost controller devices. (to me). They are about 1-2inches big. An have a sensor that plugs into it, as well as 3 hose outlets on each one. You only need to hook up the sensors. Then just Zip tie them to something so they dont' dangle around. I think they bolt or clip back on something.. but I dont' know or remember so I just Zip tied mine to some bigger hoses. Haven't had a problem yet. [/quote]

The 93 G20 is OBDI, if you don't hook it back up, it won't throw any codes. The swap is as straight forward as it gets. YOu are going from highport motor to highport motor. I also have a JDM exhaust manifold that has a bung welded in for the o2 sensor. $20 its yours.

I may have to hit you up on that. The motor should be in by Wednesday, so once I take a look at everything, I'll let you know. Thanks Mike.
