2003 civic Lx swapped with Ex(vtec engine)
So i bought this car for 1000 bucks guy told me engine been swapped thought he was full of **** honestly. CEL was on for EGR valve and there is no wire connection plug connected to the valve so i followed the whole harness wiring to see maybe somebody cut it on some dumb ****! no trace at all! I did a little research my car doesn’t have a egr valve can this affect it in anyway long term should i get a delete kit for the valve or just drive the way it is ? it drives perfect but I tried to red line it once it stops at around 5k rpms

Swap in the correct ecu (VTEC engine with no EGR, whatever trans you have)
