EGR Delete

marks87gt · November 14th, 2007, 03:41 PM

i yanked out my egr valve and put on a block off plate and plugged in a simulator. now, what do i do with the vacuum line? plug it or keep it open? i plugged it and it runs fine with no engine light on. so i guess that what right??

im sure you have it ok... on mine i didnt have a line hooked to it to start so i just put a plate in place of the egr. if nothing reads and it seems to run the same you should be ok... i wouldnt know why not

That is funny my light is still on. Did you leave it plugged in under the hood or did you get rid of it all together??

whitefox89 · November 14th, 2007, 04:01 PM

i got rid of mine all together and no engine light came on

whitefox89 · November 14th, 2007, 04:01 PM

whats the part number for the simulator that u put in for the check engine light

Your eeciv corrects timing to compensate for the EGR, if you don't have it hooked up the Check Engine light comes on for the EGR code, but it is compensating for the EGR not opening. So I recommend leaving it with the light on, or getting a chip, or something to turn EGR function off altogether.

Sorry this is on my 90.

i run with mine plugged

I was told that when the computer throws a egr code that it just takes it completely out of the equasion. Mine throws the code but runs perfectly

wat is the purpose of deleting the egr

marks87gt · November 15th, 2007, 05:07 AM

to keep the exhaust gases from re-entering the air-fuel mixture in the cylinders. it keeps the combustion cleaner.
cali 5.0, i got it from ebay! actually i got both from ebay. the block off plate and the plug in EGR eliminator simulator plug. when the ecm sends a signal to the egr threw the wiring the simulator "simulates" the function of the egr as if it was still hooked up.

i just cut some sheetmetal, drilled two holes, put gasket sealer on it and painted it. (worked great) i know its kind of rig'd but it looks fine with the maroon paint.

Really cheap way to do it, but it works.

Thats my way of doing things! ! ! Here is my EGR delete..... all I did was remove the EGR plate and fabricated a throttle cable bracket.... very cheap, and very effective....

Expanded view....

It really helps to free up some much needed space for intercooler piping...

The only place exhaust should be going is into a turbo, not the intake! ! !
