EGR block off plates

punkrockford · Feb 20, 2013

Anyone run EGR block of plates? kid of wondering if it is worth it cause it would be pretty easy to take off for warranty work. then once warranty expires go with full egr delete. what do you guys think?

Just do the one on the intake elbow. Leave the coolers in place, if your worried about warranty or smog. Order a Gasket from Ford trace outline on a piece of 1/8 steel cut it out good to go. Just make sure It's flat.

does it affect the boost at all? i have heard the egr coolers act as a waste gate of sorts?

but are they worth doing, keeping in mind that when my warranty is up i will most likely do an egr delete?

If you are going to block the EGR you are going to do a tuner and DPF delete right? Why not just do it all.

yes the dpf delete and tuner are coming as well i was just wondering if egr block offs are worth it for the next 2.5 years until my warranty is up, the the egr gets deleted. if it needs to the dealer for service i can put the dpf back in and remove the block off plates.
