Default deleting the egr.

im putting my typhoon lower back on and the gasket set felpro 1250 comes with the little bread shaped gaskets to block off the egr ports on the head to lower intake. and also since im doing that ill be able to leave the coolant lines off the egr spacer. ill leave the egr unhooked so the computer will not composate and cause any issues. i seen a few people that have done this and recommend it. ive had the egr unhooked before with no issues at all on the road or at the dragstrip im just doing it right this time by blocking off the ports. from the head to lower intake.

you will want to leave the EGR valve plugged in, otherwise the computer will think something is wrong and you will LOSE power. Its a dyno proven fact that this is the way it happens. .

You won't gain anything by doing this. Leave it in tact.


Damn Brian, this is like Deja vu huh?

leave the vaccum off of it though so it want open and computer wont compensate for inert air when there is non due to the port being blocked off. im just trying to get my intake air temp down by getting rid of the exhaust gases and coolant lines.
