So it's was all super easy except for that nut in the manifold. So I getto rigged it and put a nut on it and used some exhaust putty. Sent from my iPhone 5 IOS 7 using IH8MUD

What is the benefit of this?
Hey John- I had the same issue with that nut and am sitting in a holding pattern until I figure that part out. Are you going to be at Tyler's on Wednesday? I'd really like to take a look at how it finished up.

It's gets rid of all the emissions stuff. I have noticed just a little bit increase a power. And makes the engine look a lot cleaner. I've haven't had any harm from it so far taking it off.

Remember the KnightRider!
My understanding of it is that this motor wasn't designed to use the EGR. It was added, after the fact, to comply with US emissions.
I wouldn't be able to remove mine. I get a visual inspection every year. EGR is one of the things they look for.
Shockeere, Torfab deleted mine over a year ago, and I've never thrown a CEL as a result. From what he told me, you should be fine for local emissions here in King Co.

You could do the paper clip 'delete.' Reroute the little hoses and jump the electrical connection with a paperclip. Keeps all the hardware in place while essentially deleting the EGR from the system. I did it to get rid of my CEL and has worked perfect for over a year.

Yeah I did the redneck delete of my EGR as well. I was throwing a code previously and after the fix all has been good for months.

I also love that the formerly searing hot pipe back there is hand touchable cool even after hours of hot driving. I like knowing a huge source of heat in a crowded area of the engine compartment is gone.

Quick question. My county does one of those sniff tests (they connect an exhaust sniffer to the exhaust pipe as I dont have and obd2 connection) on the exhaust pipe but no visual inspection, other than looking for the cats. Anyone know if I would have a chance of passing if I removed the egr equipment?

Is it supposed to sound like that?
I used to live in king county- if you do the resistor inline loop for the sensor plug it will pass without any problems. My CEL never came back after that was done, and emissions passed every time.
I've been meaning to do this. I'm tired of the check engine light being on, and have no plans on spending the money to repair the EGR system, so I'd rather ditch it and kill the light.

Will take less then 5 minutes. Less than 1 if you don't have to search for a paper clip!

I have the same thing in my county in tx and have had no problems passing. Even two summers ago when I was throwing an o2 sensor code. Thought for sure with my paperclip fix and o2 issue I wouldn't pass but tried it anyways, guy said everything was perfect.
