EGR exhaust plates

Powerstroked162 · Oct 16, 2013

How many of you guys prefer kits with the port for a pyro in the exhaust plate vs the kits that come blank with no port? Trying to gauge whether or not it's worth cutting both

I'll want one with a port for the sensor.

No problem Mateo

I'd do port and a plug then leave it to the customer.

Powerstroked162 · Oct 16, 2013

I thought about that as well. I haven't checked the thread on the probe though. Is it common? I remember working on a glow plug delete one time. Ford uses 'tarded threads on some of that stuff

Most after market ones are 1/8" NPT and the stock DPF temp sensors are 1/4" NPT I believe depending on which way you go. 1/4" would limit you to only H&S tuning though.

I have always used a 1/8 NPT tap for the pyro probes. I agree, cut the port and plug it.

yeah the stock egt probe is different threads then a standard egt probe. Didn't h&s kit use the 3rd egt pyro in the exhaust? That would be cool if you could get it to work kind of like there kit used to.

I get one of these right!?

Super08Duty · Oct 17, 2013

I'd like one with stock dog sensor threads. Send it to me when you get it done. K thanks

Would you happen to know if that's 1/8npt? I'm probably gonna end up going that route(1/8npt) for simplicity sake. I don't want to leave people tuning limited

Sí lol. I've got a beta plate with that pitch, iirc. I'll put it in with yours

The d p f temp probes are all the same, PN # and all. Doesn't matter which you choose.

But that only works with their tuning and its a larger thread. A 1/8" NPT one will work for every one because all the after market probes are that size and most all tuners that have the capability to run one.

Ya I'll want one for the dpf sensor so I can just monitor though the mini maxx.

You could just drill the hole larger and tap it to 1/4" NPT.

That may be what people will have to do. I'll be going 1/8npt

Yeah well I was just saying how the blocker plates h&s used to sell since almost everyone runs a mm

That will cover the broader # of users, if people with H&S get one they can always drill and tap it to the stock temp probe size or run the H&S pyro kit.
