EGR delete
#31
Thanks for the data.
If I read the table correct, then there is EGR is ONLY active from idle to 3000 rpm when the load (TQ) is below 267NM.
Above 3100 rpm and/or TQ>267 NM the is NO active EGR.
That somewhat makes sense, because the emissions will be measured at low power/rpm usually.

I've done it on a few other cars, and thought about doing it a while back on my '07 just to simplify things. Mechanically it should be super easy to do: pull out the EGR module and tube to the exhaust manifold. Fab a delete plate for the EGR-to-intake manifold opening and another for the tube-to-exhaust manifold opening. So long as it's tuned for it, it shouldn't be a problem. Not sure if the system can detect the missing EGR module itself (if so, you might need a resistor plugged into the wiring harness where the EGR module plugs in). Easy test would be to unplug the wiring harness to the EGR module and see if your car throws a new code for that.

AFAIK you can completely remove the EGR system and use a blank plate to seal the opening. The EGR delete tune will prevent any warning lights.

Not sure I understand 'remove the EGR' - you are talking about blanking off the hole on the headers?

So, if you have our Gen 1 headers, they do include the take off point for EGR on the headers. Our Gen 2 headers delete this entirely. Blanking off the port on the header, and inserting a bung into the hole on the EGR will disable the system, and if you have our ECU Tuning set up for this, will not throw any DTC codes. There's no need to remove the actual EGR unit from the engine.
