    no, it wont pass visual without it, im guessing its not on the back of the heads what heads are you running? stock? internally, there are holes in each exhaust port that lead to a single hole in the back of each head , those holes are for the tube.

There is a vacuum line that goes to the egr valve, if you have that vac line...

    lol the egr valve is the thing sticking out of the egr spacer after the throttle body in between the intake facing towards the firewall.the egr system recirculates excess exhaust gasses into the intake then to the combustion chambers to be burned off, via the thermactor tube in the back of the...
