Ok I took off the EGR thing that's near the header and took the hardpipe out, plugged it, etc. The only thing I have left are the two vaccum lines that ran from it over to near the throttle body. What do I do with them? One of the just goes straight to the throttle body (TB) , and one has a T connector, then goes to the TB and the intake piping. Should I plug them or leave them open? Thanks!

P.S. Once I'm done with this (it has been such pain finding info) I'm gonna make a nice DIY write up.

there should be 4 really small vac hoses under TB, remove all and plug with hose caps from auto zone. and then remove carbon canister and vent hard line runnin to it(from gas tank) that runs along frame rail,and relocate into small hole located under canister on frame (small plastic elbow) thas it easy took me maybe 30 min at the most. car still runs fine with no probs, any more question feel free to ask

So do the two other vaccum lines (the ones that don't come from the EGR) come from the charcoal canister? Also, is it ok to remove the charcoal canister?... isn't that there to vent the gas tank or something?.. I mean I know that the EGR is there for a reason too technically... I'm just making sure its not a big deal.
