I am not going to put the EGR tube back on, so what problems with the computer will I have. Also the air pump might be coming off, what problems there?

Can I fire the motor and start breaking it in with these problems, or do I need a custom chip burned?
 
I think the idle will be kind of funny.
 
Well I thought the EGR only operates at highway speeds. I could be wrong though.
 
mine is all blocked off and taken out. you won't have any problems. just cap the egr tube with a nickel for now until you get the block off plate.

The best 5 cents you'll ever spend :L (talk about your cheap mods!)
 
Well the air crap stuff is coming off, all except the pump, because I dont have enough dough for the bracket. I used my old tube, and cut about one inch off so it could still be crimped on the manifold. My grandpa put a flat washer inside the end, and then welded it shut.
