they said to take it to a place that does exhaust kits and stuff and have them check it out. ;-; I'm washing my air filter right now and finishing up some of the electronics...... does anyone know how to connect a laptop to my car's ECU?

alright yesterday I had a little help, and I found out that when you rev this new engine up to about 4-5k rpm, that not all of the exhaust is going out the pipe.... but more or less falling straight to the ground.... and going back up under the hood and getting sucked back in through the cold air intake. I believe I found the cause of my EGR problem.... does anyone know how to fix it? I'm not sure exactly were it's coming from, I'm too prissy to actually get on the ground and look. XD
The EGR system routes exhaust gas to the Intake Manifold to heat the engine up and get the motor to operating temperature quickly...
Find out why exactly the EGR code would appear... In other words, what does the ECU rely on to generate the error code? Know this and you can fix your problem.
