as far as i know it is stock, i bought he car with all the major mods to it already done.
all i have done it brought the visual appeal back and tune up and what not.

i know it most likely needs it but i dont think it will fix all my problems. i figure the misfire is the cams ,maybe even the high idle, but i dont think the egr problem is.., i removed my intake manifold to check for a clog but its as clean as can be

Check the egr to make sure all the hoses are on. They like to pop off. I did that and the egr code is gone. If u need a new egr let me no i have one
