Default EGR problem
I was removing my stock headers getting ready to install my longtubes but I couldnt get the EGR tube off. I tried a little to hard and ended up twisting and cracking the tube. What can I do now?

Either delete it or buy a new tube.

I did the same when i installed my longtubes. I just deleted it and tuned the computer for it. If you dont have a tuner then you have to get a new tube.

No gain to be had by deleting it. It just looks cleaner under the hood without it.
