It works to an extent but you are much better off removing youe EGR valve cleaning it in carb/injector cleaner with an old toothbrust making sure it opens and closes correctly and re- fitting it.
There has been alot of debate about Blanking/blocking the EGR valve on inported mitsies and i belive there is alot of evidance to sugest thet it is not the best option, i have tried both the ball bearing in the pipe and the EGR blanking plate and found no dfferance in performance or smoke with them fitted but after i removed and cleaned it (it was jammed slightly open i think) all has been well.

It's not just the ball bearing you are paying for ...
I't being told where to stick it  :evil:

I'd be happy to tell anyone that for free  :P

(seriously - for a moment, don't pay this shyster, just PM me).

It will work - but not if the valve itself is stuck open which is the usual problem.

But - there is the suggestion this mod causes overheating and cracked heads.

No absolute evidence (eg rolling road datalogging) either way as yet.
