Thanks for looking
This blanking plate is made from Laser cut 1.5mm 304 Stainless Steel, and has been rumbled to make it smooth and give it an abraded surface to get a better seal. It fits between the exhaust extension tube and the EGR cooler ( shown in the pictures), which is held in place by two bolts at the front of the engine.
This plate will put the engine management light on, but will not go into limp mode. ( having a hole in it still would get the EML coming on, so no point). It is slotted to make it easier to fit.
This EGR valve fits for BMW N47N N57N B37 B47 B57 116 118 120 125 318 320 520
Benefits of blocking EGR:
1. Cleaner engine oil helping to give longer engine life. )
2. Turbo spooling up quicker, and at lower revs )
3. Prevents soot build up in intake manifold, and valve's, which will lower the power
4. A smother drive, and usually better fuel economy
5. Less black smoke, so will help it pass the MOT
6. The DPF/FAP stays cleaner for longer, so less re-generation's
