well, i took my car to nissan for them to see what was wrong with my car and they said they cant do any work on my car till my egr valve is hooked back up. all i did was hacked the pipe off the stock manifold because the valve wouldnt unscrew for the life of me. what im gonna do is just take my downpipe elbow off the car at nissan and take it to the muffler shop and have them weld the egr valve into it. i was just wondering how far past the exhaust side of the turbo should i have them weld the egr valve? right now my 1st o2 sensor is about 1 foot down the pipe. that looks like about the same location for my egr valve. is it alright to just place it right across from the o2 sensor?

dont take your car to the dealer, if its modified.. you are starting an endless battle.

take your car to a nissan specialist and be dont with, if you cant seem to figure it out yourself.

good luck,

i think im already screwed. it's at the nissan dealership and they cant fix what's actually wrong with my car till my egr is fixed and they said they NEED all my stock parts (intake, airbox, header) and all that crap before they can do anything to my car. this is THE LAST time it goes to the dealership
