I've often wondered about doing this, but is it worth the effort?
If it is worth doing, can I do it by simply removing the wiring connector - the screws look a bit rusty to me.

If I remove/disable the EGR valve on my td300 will I notice much difference?

When you say "blanking plate on the other end", I'm not entirely clear what you mean, could you elaborate please?
Thanks

There's a joint in the pipework near the exhaust manifold end, with 2 bolts. take it apart and insert something thin and flat to block the hole. ISTR a
2p piece is about the right size, make sure it's a recent one so it's copper-plated steel and not bronze. Check with a magnet if in doubt.- Vote on answer

I found a £2 coin was a better fit. Then you can tweak the pump up a little too. I seem to recall the best performance increase is likely to occur if you get rid of the cat though. I never managed to make mine improve performance much, but blanking off the egr gave a smoother engine. TonyB
