used rjc power plate

[T Spool]

I bought a used power plate for a stock plenum off a board member and it came with a 1 inch hole cut in it (with a die grinder) where I guess the egr port is. I know it doesn't come new that way so why would somebody cut the hole in it? I run Turbo Tweak chips that disable the egr function, but my question is, is this thing junk now or does it not matter there is a hole in it? Thanks for the help!

Nope, it will be fine. I drilled a hole in mine when the EGR was still enabled on my car. I also run a TT with EGR disabled.

+1 on that I run the plate with the hole drilled with the Turbo tweek chip. (2 of the best mods so far and cheap too)

Same deal here. Had the fcty chip when I installed the plate, and drilled the hole. Now have the TT chip and no problems.

Thanks

for the help guys! The seller is going to make it right anyway and trade me for one without the hole so that's cool.

I drilled mine so that I could run the TurboTweak emissions chip for state inspection....

why would you have to drill a hole in the plate. i havent heard of this before. ive been looking at getting one. i still plan on keeping the egr function. when i get one, where would the hole have to be drilled.

After aligning the stock plenum gasket to it, you drill the hole where the EGR gasses go, should be around 3/8" to 1/2" not 1".

The gasket is the template and it's easy to do if you need or want the EGR function.
