Well, if you don't want to block them off, clean the ports out. I saw several posts on SH back in the day where people looked and they were almost completely clogged with carbon deposits. I plan on doing this when I have some time, its not that hard.

Hey Stefan, did your car throw a CEL after doing the EGR mod? I'd rather just disconnect mine instead of clean it.
