first of all could someone please tell me how to blank off my egr valve as i have searched and searched the internet and found nothing for my engine its a 1.8 tddi 1999 duratec deisel ford focus absolutely love the car just want some extra power as its my little toy and dont matter too much if fuel economy goes down a bit

also i have heard that i can remove the boxes on the exhaust system and replace with straight pipe my freind is very very good with a welder and has worked on agriculural machinery for 15 years ....will removing the muffler box's and replacing back box with a sports exhaust make the car sound really nice? (((i wanna hear a bit of that turbo u see )))

also i have heard that to de-cat these cars i can just smash the honeycombe out from the catelic converter which will make the car sound even better???

p.s. hope i have posted this in correct section...any help will be much appreciated

James.
