Egr Delete Kits

jro909 · September 13, 2011

i'm trying to do some research on egr delete kits for a buddy that recently picked up a 6.0 powerstroke, basically what brands are decent and pros and cons of doing this...sorry i know this isen't a GM related question

Avoid it! It will cause a ton of other problems. That engine was made to use a EGR and it needs it. Everyone I talk to that has done it or worked on a 6.0 with an EGR delete has had problems. High cyl. temps, emission problems, and premature engine failure. Dorman products makes a good EGR kit for these that has all the gaskets and orings needed to do the job. I have installed about 6 of them without a comeback......

Just my 2 cents.

Burn it and collect on the insurance! But seriously, the 6.0 is very problematic. Before i would do ANYTHING i would do ALOT of research on the diesel place or any other diesel forum.

hes already ordered an egr delete...needless to say its kind of out of my hands now, its quite sad that ford could produce an engine on par with herpes and then sweep it under the rug like it was nothing....leaving used vehicle buyer's wallets being bent over

hey guys, just wondering about the egr delete kits for 2006 310bhp (lly i believe) I was told the computer won't allow it. is that true, and also curious as to best chip and/or exhaust to increase fuel mileage while pulling 5th wheel and boat.

Hey guy I'm thinking to do a delete kit on my 2016 duramax

Need feed back? I live in Southern California also need to find a place where to do it, any info is appreciated

Suggest you go talk to the folks over on duramaxforum.com Many over there have done this.

Southern California and you want to delete the EGR? I guess if you keep all of the parts so you can re-install it every 2 years for a smog check you might get away with it. We have smog checks, you know...

I think you'll have to go to Arizona to get it done by a shop; pretty sure it's illegal for any shop in California to delete the EGR.
