the air pump pumps exhaust gas from the tubes on the back of your heads down into a valve, then into a tube right before your cats on the h-pipe. Its only mission in life is to get those cats hot

The EGR valve introduces exhaust gas into the intake manifold to reduce oxides of nitrogen (NOx) by reducing peak cylinder temperature and pressure. Unfortunately, high cylinder pressure equals power.
