That's a five minute fix, while the plate cleaning takes about an hour

You'll need one of those knuckles to be able to remove a couple of those bolts on the EGR plate btw, and keep a magnet handy for when you drop one into the bottom pan

I keep my RE92s at 60 psi with no ill effects, I kept the Maypops on the Festiva at 50 psi and never had an issue with them either.
I also run 60, but I don't recommend it to people as you lose A LOT of braking grip at 60 vs 45.
