[QUOTE="96S/Cobra, post: 16585792, member: 60106"] The main EGR assembly is affixed to the side of the intake. I can't remember specifics, but I feel there were a vacuum line or two that I had to cap off back at the fire wall, maybe a bit towards the passenger side. For the life of me I can't remember the routing of the pipes coming off of the exhaust manifolds. I feel like a few of them run to a silver canister type object on the front of the engine, and then a rubber hose runs from this canister over into the passenger fender to the SAI pump. There would be a noticeable running issue/stumble if there is a vacuum leak if you didn't get all the vacuum lines capped. It should still run, just not run "normal." I would not think you could hear a leak if you missed a line, but I can't be for certain. My advice would be to just remove one item at a time. As you are taking the EGR off, if there is a vacuum line or two running to it, trace them back to a location that would allow you to easily cap off the line(s). If you do this slowly and methodically you shouldn't miss any lines that need to be capped. I would not think there would be a substantial decrease in fuel mileage once these items are deleted. It may drop a bit, but I wouldn't think it would be a ton. Again, I can't comment on fuel mileage as I have changed numerous things with my car over the years, and it is not a daily driver, so checking what kind of mileage I get out of my car is something I have never been too concerned with.
