just an idea. as i'm looking at doing this and don't want the dealer asking questions.

Its pretty amazing just how much the flap moves about during driving.
Another idea I had a while back was to use the EGR signal to kill the Flap when its trying to do its DIRTY stuff.

ok that would work to but wat about water if you go through a creek crossing. i'm just thinking later on down the track to. if the filter is wet won't the engine suck in a little bit of water. or would you just put a small bag over it and tie it off

when I was running diagnostics myself, EGR is set to 0% while TB is unplugged, so probably cant use it as a trigger as it would have no signal(?) but what I'm thinking is, if EGR is disabled while TB is unplugged, would I still need to blank it?
just a crazy idea, probably need something alot more complicated to do it
anyway, what I'm thinking is a relay, wired to kill circuit to TB when triggered (by ignition or some other sensor being triggered(?) so while the engine is on, the TB has no power (and should be open) but when trigger is gone, power is restored to the TB, to counter rough shutdown. Probably need a microprocessor controlled unit plugged into the actual TB plug to achieve it tho (like Sprint booster is with the acc pedal)
