Default EGR valve block off with check engine light

Hello to all!
I am new here but i hope that some of you will answer to my question.
I drive Accord type R (It's swap, everything is from ATR except chassis) and few days ago I removed EGR valve and then check engine light starts so i put EGR valve back on the car but near the fuse box and connect it. There is no check engine light for 100km and then it starts again.
Now my question is : Does someone know how to remove and block off EGR valve without check engine light?
TNX.

The only way would be to get a chipped ecu and turn it off in the program options.

Yes, I know that but i hope that someone have some other solution without chipping ECU. The solution is somewhere but we must find it. Thank you.

There is no other solution, a chipped ecu is the ONLY way to turn off the egr or you can just leave it on as it serves a good purpose.

The actual code is 8 or maybe 88, i am not sure because always blink 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8.
Or maybe it's 80, that mean Exhaust Gas Recirculation insufficient flow detected.
If it is 8 TDC - top dead centre sensor.
I think that is 80 and that's normal because of EGR.

I can't upload because it's too long and too big.

there is no way around since not only does it check lift it also checks flow for the EGR. Fuel mapping and ignition mapping are based on the egr flow as well. the egr allows for a leaner mixture that also burns slightly cooler allowing for better emissions and fuel economy at part throttle. it remains closed under wide open throttle.
