I have a 94 Toyota 2wd pickup with a 22RE. I am going to rebuild the motor and want to remove the EGR junk. I don't have to worry about emissions. Do you have to do anything with the computer? What do you do with the vacuum line? Is there anything else I should worry about?

Thanks Opie

I'd leave it on. just me.

I would be very careful about trying to do this. The ECU is not designed to work without this system. I dont beleive there is any power or economy to be gained by the removal, either. It can be done, sure. But other than just wanting to remove stuff, Why?

id tap the port and put an allen head screw in it and port it with a 64/100 hole. pretty much a restrictor plug that still allows the egr to work properly but not pass as much of the junk through.

I bought the LC Engineering EGR blockoff plates and installed them before my Moab trip. I couldn't tell a difference in performance before and after. I can't stand the thought of my hard work last summer cleaning the 1/4" of black gunk out of the intake and head to be ruined in a couple of months of running the exhaust back into the engine. Stupid idea if you ask me.

So you just buy there block off kit and block the ports. What do you do with the vacuum lines and did you have to change anything with the computer. I want a street proformace engine with out all that crap going back in the engine after spending hours cleaning and polishing. I just want the bear minimum; an engine with big power.

Thanks Opie

I just plugged the open vaccuum lines. I didn't do anything computer wise. I'd look elsewhere for an engine with big power, the 22RE won't do it for you.

I don't know... I had a Mazda B3000 pickup,same thing as a ranger, and it sucked pretty hard... still faster than my 4runenr though so nm your right

ive been driving around a 3.0 auto ranger fro the past 8 months, that thing has some pep... its a 2wd with 3.73s

BikerTrash · « **Reply #13 on:** Apr 11, 2007, 10:59:19 PM »

My Mazda must have had problems. It was a 2000 3.0 standard cab with a 5 speed, not sure of the gears. Would have loved to get a B4000 with a five speed but got tired of driving trucks with open beds.

Has anyone every done a 3RZ swap into a 2wd pickup. I have thought about it but didn't have enough onfo to attemped it in a 2wd toyota. What parts of the wireing harness do you switch over. that would be awesome an instant 180 hp.

Thanks Opie

I don't know if its been done, but there is now a stand alone wiring kit offered by ORS I believe. Not sure if it'd work in the 2wd trucks as opposed to 4wd, but I don't see why not

Thanks Opie

Think it's more like 150, unless you get a blower for it.

I have an 89 RE and i blocked off my egr from the head, intake and exhaust. I have eliminated all of my vaccuum lines except the pcv and my motor runs just fine. its a lot easier to work with this way too.

jimbo74 · « **Reply #19 on:** Jul 09, 2007, 01:53:10 PM »

if you want to do an engien swap into a 2wd, check out www.supracharged.com they have some slick 2wds

3rz is 150 HP, its quick on a light truck but honestly why would you blow money on a new "faster" engine and get a 150 hp engine. you can get a performance kit for 1500 that will boost a 22re to 200-some horse i believe (basically replaces the entire upper part of the engine) then another 1500 for a supercharger and i believe you're sitting around 250-300 hp. slightly more expensive but a hellova lot more power. look at lc engineering's online catalog (google it)
