EGR block off plate for the 3vz-fe anyone?

I just made one of these for myself today and I was wondering if anyone else had an interest in one? If so, I could have some nicer looking ones made (im more concerned about function over looks) and sell the for a reasonable price on here.

why not just use a piece of sheet metal? and put it inbetween like a gasket but without the hole in the center.

then you'd have useless hardware in your engine bay... by using his blockoff plate you free up some room in there. i saw it yesterday, it looks clean as hell!

As long as you plug the lines, there will be no code.
Plugging the lines is free
Also getting back to stock for emmision test is fast.

Nah, nbo real performance gains other than slightly cooler engine temps from having not exhaust recirculated.
