My friend has an x14 with a power box and said he had hag nothing but trouble with it because of an egr valve/sensor. I've ordered one for my x16 so would there be any modification to the egr thing and where would it be located?

If your power box is fitted properly! the EGR valve doesn't have to be touched.
blank off were the throttle support bracket un-bolts from, this allows the EGR to work as
normal and thus no problems

You shouldnt have any issue other then the management light flicking on when decelerating from iirc 60mph. Should go off once the ignition has been turned off. Engine idle is far smoother without the egr, Imo positives outway the negatives

NOT THIS

no gain what so ever from blanking it.

i never bothered when i had mine, and the eml never came on or flickered, ran perfectly fine and healthy
