EGR delete

Anyone here ever remove the egr valve and replace it with the block off plate? I couldn't really find good info on it. any positive outcomes from doing this mod? I heard an extra few HP but that's about it.

the main benefit of this mod is to help keep your intake manifold clean.
thats it.


you can use a block off plate.
it will cause a check engine light to come on. without some sort of tune, we arent able to trick the light to go off.

The EGR recirculates some of the exhaust gas back into the intake manifold which helps reduce combustion temperatures which in return lowers emissions.

It's emission related and that's why it sets a light when it gets blocked off.

Yes EGR is to decrease NOx emissions but also will increase fuel economy slightly. Deleting EGR on your daily driver is pointless. When you go full throttle the comp turns the EGR completely off for maximum power gains. Therefore deleting it will give you zero power gains, just a check engine light and a failed smog check in required states.
