EGR Disaster

[Rocket Man]

I was going too but the check engine light annoys me... lol

I had mine turned off in my BlackBear tune. Broke the bolts off too when removing the crap and had to remove the ac compressor in order to get enough room to drill the bolts out. I used a block off plate in place of the egr stuff.

Curious, what is gained by removing the EGR altogether? Besides the fun of drilling out broken bolts that is.

Quote:
”Advantages of Using an EGR Delete Kit
Properly disabling it decreases soot deposits, which prevents harmful contaminants from being reintroduced back into the engine and causing issues. With restored engine power comes restored diesel MPG, which means better fuel economy.”

Also with my supercharger it was required to delete it.
