AIR/EGR delete
My brother has a 1999 LS1 corvette. It is in the process of having long tubes put on. The shop said the EGR tube needs to be extended and the X pipe he has will not mate up to his Corsa catback.
Could the EGR/air just be blocked off with some block off plates?
Does anyone know if Stainkess Works x pipe will mate up to a Corsa Catback?

If it's a full X back to the muffler connection; they should fit. None of the cat back manufacturers change the connection point AFAIK.
You can use block off plates if allowed where you live, but you should disable the system, and you will have to have it tuned out so you don't get dash warnings.

The shop doing the work said the X Pipe is 3 inch and the axle back is 2.5 inch at the flange so it would not bolt up. X Pipe and headers are SW, the axleback in Corsa.
On the AIR injection system what is the best place for block off plates?

So that piece would go on the header ports?

This is used on the intake manifold?

I have been wanting to remove my headers and cut off the tube and have it welded up then have my headers coated, just have not found the time.
