Block off plates are made and cheap but tricking the ECM has to be done through a tuner.

Plug the Vacuum hose, take the DPFE off [just leave the plug], and remove the bracket. If you deleted the ECR system in your tune the CEL should not have come on.

it must be turned off via file programming. nothing needs to be removed, the EEC wont read anything.

if you turned it off with the programmer, it should be fine. as for the PCV stuff, just replace whatever is cracked.
