You need to find some kind of asbestos wrap or make a small heat-shield guard to put on or around the exhaust line to the EGR; thus preventing this from occurring in the future.

Your catalytic converter can have blockage as well which will cause all these problems

Can you drive a motorcycle without the baffles in the exhaust?

it is possible to ride your motorcycle without the baffles in the exhaust, but there are a few side effects from doing so. the bike will probably backfire and pop when revving or getting off of the throttle. also you may need to retune your carburator. the bike needs some kind of back pressure, so if your drilling out the baffles don't do so completely. without backpressure it'll run like S@#T.

Can starting a 1997 Z28 without a muffler cause anydamage to anything?

If ONLY the muffler is missing from the rear of the car, and the rest of the exhaust system is intact, then the only damage will be to your hearing, and your wallet in the form of a ticket for defective equipment if you drive it on the street like that. However, I would NOT recommend running it for extended periods like that, as the engine is designed to run with a certain amount of backpressure, and with the muffler gone you are de-tuning your exhaust system and lowering performance. It's not like the old days where running open headers gave your car a power boost. Also you could be getting exhaust in the car itself as the pipe is open before the exhaust exits out from under the car.

How difficult is it to put a 2 liter Hyundai Accent motor into a 1997 Hyundai Excel?

2To be honest if you oversize your exhaust on an N/A car then you risk reducing the "backpressure" to the engine and hence reduce the overall performance. Just by changing the backbox on a 1995 to 1999 Hyundai Accent / Excell on a stock engine will change the "power band" from about 2k RPM to about 4k RPM. By getting the TB mod you will hopefully negate the larger exhaust backpressure reduction, but for a 2.0 litre conversion you will need to referr to www.performancehyundai.com ;)I put a 2L late model excel engine in my 92 excel(1.8L) not sure the difference between elantra and excel but all i did was kept the original "juicy bits" like radiator ECU and gearbox ect. and everythign fit perfectly, no over pressure or anything.

Yes, she was replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard.
