EGR Valve

WAR-PARTY · November 29th, 2007, 01:27 PM

As some of you know my Stang will be a drag car only trailered. So here is my question. EGR valve keep or delete? Motor has a KB 2.6 and NO2

04GTAMPA · November 29th, 2007, 01:35 PM

Delete that shit. It will only send hot air back up there and kill performance.

^ ya that was my thinking too

how are you going about deleting it WP?

04GTAMPA · November 29th, 2007, 03:41 PM

I deleted mine not too long ago and I noticed a more prolonged performance during hotter temperatures.

how did you do this, what about the computer?

04GTAMPA · November 29th, 2007, 05:27 PM

You can turn it off just like the 02 sensors and such...

So the EGR valve is different on the modular motors? They usually don't open at WOT, so it won't really hurt performance at the track. Will it? Also, if you unplug it and get a cel, it automatically stays shut. Or, I could be wrong. Thats the way it works on Foxes, anyway. Is it the same for these cars?

just another Q. will deleting this out benefit or hinder performance or DD drivibility?

Deleting will not give you more performance unless you are racing at cruising speed. It cuts down on emissions at cruise speed and helps save a little money on gas.http://http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/egr.htm

My race motor is still sitting on the engine stand so I just removed it and the sensor that was assoiated with it. when I get the chip burned it will be on the spec sheet as removed

^good job. I don't care at what speed or idle the HOT air is coming in, it will hurt.
