	Ahh right, so the thread is in the valve itself. I could cut a alloy template, tap two threads into it, then bolt it where the valve used to go. Or could i just leave the valve disconnected? No air hose/vaccum connection, will it just stay shut and not leak exhaust gasses?

	Right, i'll check the engine loom, the valve is at the end of the loom if i remember rightly Wheres the hole for the sai valve thingy? Is it on the exhaust manifold? or the head?

	SAI - you have to leave the plug in the small valve thingy, otherwise the EML comes on. And yes you will have to block the hole EGR - Get an EGR blanking plate (look under mervia 1600 i think on EPC) and just put an blanking gasket or get a sheet of metal and cut it too shape

	I have a x16xe going into a nova, so im removing the egr, and sai system(i dont have the sai pump anyway) To put the egr out of action do i basically make a template in some alloy plate, bolt that inbetween inlet and tb? But leave the valve plugged in? The sai looks alittle more tricky, i have a small valve that comes from the inner wing of a corsa iirc, with a plug on it. Do i leave the valve plugged in? But remove the silver valve from the exhaust side of the engine? Will i need to somehow block the hole the sai leaves? Cheers :)
