just wondering, does anybody know what a "block-off plated" is? until now, i've never heard of it until someone mentioned that i should put one in my gf uncle's RX-7. did a google and all it did was sent me to vendors selling it but no details on what it does.

thanks ahead.

 

i would like to know also

 

lol 5 years and no answer

 

Stupid question then, stupid now. How did you come across this thread, you searching for the same.

 

Obviously a plate that blocks off things

 

EGR block off plate. Lets you remove the EGR valve. Mad JDM tyte

 

seriously though, I am pretty sure that's what it is

 

wow.... its a plate... that blocks.... off.

 

probably a scatter shield for the flywheel.

 

haha a block of plate is whats used when u have a BOV thats attached directly to the turbo set-up like an srt-4. Where the diverter valve was, you put a block off plate so the boost flows through the the external blow off valve on where ever you decided to put it

 

thanks for the info.

I just wanted to know the benefits of doing something like this

 

This is what I've heard it referenced to in the past.

 

No.

No.

More or less. RX-7's have a crapton of assorted emissions equipment mounted to the intake manifold which includes the EGR system, the blockoff plates allow you to remove the assorted nightmare of crap.
