Deleteing the EGR is way more trouble then its worth. I would wait till you do longtubes. You also need to tune for an egr delete.

Never heard of a pcv bypass

He's probably referring to valve cover breathers that vent to the atmosphere. Or, atleast that's what I assume he's referring to.

I did mine and it was as easy as cutting through the copper piping and reaching up into the that cramped little space to unbolt the tube. I bought a 5/8th's Cap from Lowes and used that and I made my own delete plate. After all that, I bought the kit from one of our vendors. That time I removed the H-pipe and it was way easier. This was also before my final tune so I didn't have to worry about the Cel. Don't believe that BS about it hurting MPG or cooling the combustion temp.... Although, that's how it's really supposed to be and the TD says that's what happens, I think the benifit is nominal.

Yes... Keep your PCV system the way it is. Although it will clean up the bay, the PCV system removes the toxic fumes from the crankcase. You'll need to change your oil twice as often.
