And I also found this EGR delete kit even cheaper than the other one.. It is zinc coated steel tho, Stainless up pipe tho.. Hmmm $20 cheaper and they are just a state away lol Seriously tho fellows, will this work good in your opinions?

I would buy name brand only.. Sinister, RCD ect.. Clogged oil coolers cause EGR cooler failures so buy a rebuild kit or replace the oil cooler.. I think the least of your concern right now should be performance modifications but for what it's worth, leave your stock intake, the 6.0 intake works well and your going to get any better filtering out of spending money on a aftermarket system.. As far as a tuner, 6.0's like the SCT I hear but I never had one so I can't tell ya.. Exhaust, 4 inch turbo back.. MBRP is what I have and I like it..

As far as the 6.4 bolts, I don't have them but I do have the upgraded FPR kit.. Very important to keep your fuel pressure up otherwise your injectors won't last long.. $72.00 from the dealer..

Thank you sir! I also like name brand.. But, in this case your talking over double the denaro's!! and for what really? These other kits look just as good as far as a qouple pipes and a blockoff plate goes... Just wandering if there Really is a difference in the egr delete kits?

and the performance side Is least of concerns RightNow in this situation.. But, still a concern. But for the record, i hadnt planned on an after market air intake 'system' But just rather a Better Filter for my factory airbox, as I will be changeing Fluids, filters and the like.. Iam sure the stocker is Dirty!!

ok, Awesome I Deffinately Need the blue spring then! Good too Know why. So the banjos are more for Performance then longevity huh..

STR8LINE · Oct 10, 2011

I will also need an intake gasket set huh.. what other gaskets or o-rings will I need?

Some guys do use the 6.4 bolts but IMO, I really don't think there needed.. There is a guy on here that welds EGR coolers up, pressure tests them and sells them.. All you need to do is send him your core after you install his and he does it cheap.. "hawgdoctor" is his screen name.. I have talked to him a few times, he is a nice guy to deal with.. PM him and talk to him about it..

STR8LINE · Oct 11, 2011

I could tig weld My cooler and Have it pressure tested I guess.. Or, just make a test for it also. But, I really want too just delete it while Iam in there Im thinkin.. Iam ready too order parts, just up in the air about which ones exactly I should go with. I Want too save the money, but just tryin too figure out if there is a significant difference in the sinister EGR kits and all the others.. I made an offer for one off Ebay wolla go, we'll see how it goes.

Any more opinions guys?

Maybe open a new thread with PSA vendors in the title.. I'm sure they have what you need..

I got a brand new EGR delete from Customdiesel out of TN for $100 shipped too my door.. It is Stainless up pipe and zinc coated steel coolant pipe and blockoff plate, I think they will last.

Iam thinking of going ahead an ordering the Synister coolant filtration kit for $129 shipped rightnow..

And Iam waiting too hear back from Sunriseford here on psa for price on New oil cooler, Intake gaskets, VC-9 and also pricing on blue FPR spring and 6.4 banjo bolts..

Anything else Iam gonna Need? or that I Should Do while Iam a doing?? Thank you Very Much Man and anybody else who wants too chime in for that matter
