EGR Valve


Just curious I was thinking about getting the egr delete piece from upr I was just wondering what else would I have to do to fully delete the egr valve?

I heard it also makes the car run a little smoother by keeping exjaust out of the intake. Not really noticeably smoother. But just one of those little things that can make your car a little bit better. But it does clean up the engine bay very nicely.

It does a few things. 1 thing it does is by diluting the incoming air with burnt air, it keeps the engine temps down. It also prevents the car from havign as high emissions. However, do not do this without tuning the car. Otherwise the computer doesn't know how to run it right and end up running off. Too lean, since it has more air than it realizes and lean means more engine heat and ail breakdown hence seized engines and failed rods. Its safe with a good tune, but remember the emissions and a little bit lower gas mileage. Truth be told, its not really worth it. Save the cash.

This is very good advice. The entry of the exhaust lowers combustion temps and improves mileage. Without a tune it will leave you with detonation at part throttle under cruise conditions.

even though i dont have to take emissions test here, im gonna keep mine, not worth the $$ for me right now to remove it. Especially when I weigh the gaines vs the cash. Maybe later down the road
