2 questions bout blocking egr off and taking charcoal can out

just wondering if i block the egr off do i just put a plate over it or what is involved in removing it? and i am going to run a cold air induction over into the fender right where the charcoal canister is so can i just get rid of it? there are wires going into it so what if i just disconect it and take it out will my car run the same? if all it is for is for emmisions i dont have emmisions check where i am from so let me know thanks!
i have my plenum off polishing it so if i can take the egr off that would be great thanks for all the help!

is this going to be a emmissions legal car?if so you can not take either one of those items off.some people don't realize that the EGR lowers the tempiture in the commbustion chamber

hookin,
I CUT the wires going to the charcoal canister, and kicked the can and all its fuel out of the damned car. Same with the EGR, except I haven't actually removed the EGR valve (need to buy the plate), but the wires, solenoid and the blah blah is all gone.....never had a problem.
Rick

ps: also the A/C and cruise control...el gono!!...the wires are cut so that you can't even tell they were ever there.
I think I'm forgetting something, but that should be about it. Not bad huh?
