Another EGR Delete question

[08straightpiped]

I have used the search forum and googled the s%^& out of this question but need some answers. My question is I want to get an egr delete and I am wondering if I need the wastegate? I tow with my truck on the 210 KEM and I use the 345 KEM sometimes but mostly just the 250 KEM. I don't ever race or sled pull(even though it would be awesome). I barely ever WOT my truck but do like to get on the skinny pedal at times(who doesn't ) So basically will running these tunes and towing blow my headgaskets by not having a wastegate or not? I plan on doing the full cooler and egr valve delete just wondering how far I should go. Thank you for all your input.

I think you'd be fine without it by the sounds of your driving style. Ran the Spartan 275 and 310 for at least a year under pretty "spirited" driving. LOL Had about 10-12 drag strip passes as well. No problems during that time period.

Have since installed a wastegate though.

You will be just fine without a wastegate. Our cooler delete kit just dropped in price! Let me know if I can help.
