Default 1.8 silvertop exhaust manifold ,pipes coming of it?

i just bought a silvertop lump , never dabbled around with efi before really, so never needed sensors etc . but i just had a quick look and theres pipes coming of the exhaust manifold that go into a black unit. is it some sort of early egr? can i just remove and plug up he holes ? im keeping standard efi. cheers.

They are pipes to warm the CAT up quicker. Best bet is to visit a scrappy and grab a manifold off a later Escort and fit that as these didn't have these pipes fitted at all
