Is it possible to eliminate an EGR valve without having negative effects??

AdderMk2

no, removing the EGR will cause a loss in fuel mileage, and without disabling it in the ECM , will also cause idle surging at start up

irhino2

What kind of loss in fuel mileage are we talking bout? I can easily get a performance chip to overcome the idle surge.

86 5.0L

then why remove it?

creating problems and then applying a band fix is not a good idea...

irhino2

I'm adding a performance chip anyway. Why wouldn't anyone want to add one when gaining an additional 50 HP and better performance?

86 5.0L

really? 50Hp? is that what the ad said?

what mods do you have?

50 HP, I believe you hae been hood winked. (not going to happen)

irhino2

Yes, that is what the ad said.

I just finished a total rebuild. Planning to drop the motor back in tomorrow.
0.60 over, trick flow cam and lifters, edelbrock heads and intake, waiting on a 76mm throttle body, cold air intake, headers, x-pipe, and flowmaster cat backs.

Here's the chip.
