EGR Block Off Plate from TVT Design
I was just browsing the TVT Design website and came across the "EGR Block Off Plate."

Does this actually increase the horsepower or just help prevent heatsoak and ensure consistent horsepower?
Also, if it throws a CEL, is there a way to clear it? Like resetting the battery through unplugging it or clearing it using some kind of OBDII reader?

EGR doesn't function at WOT, so no effect on peak hp. At part throttle it allows more spark advance, so if you get rid of the valve you'll have more problems with detonation.

Yes you will get a CEL, on a DD car this is an unnecessary mod. It helps keep the intake clean and cool. Less oil in the manifold, equals better effective fuel octane.
These, along with the AIR plates, are more for the track only guys. There seems to be a lot more of those in the Crossfire crowd.
