Title: EGR Delete Question
Post by: Scoobum on November 08 2011, 05:03:25 PM

Installed the Champion race intake...which is EGR delete. The hoses from the EGR go into a small black box...which has a weather pack connector. If I unplug it from the black box...will it kick a code?

Not if the chip burner disabled the code as does TT.  That is the egr solenoid valve...ecm controls it to provide egr at cruise.

Is that something Eric disables regardless, or do you have to request it?  I just ordered a new TT chip and when I ordered it, I don't remember it asking me about the intake (just the heads) and whether or not I wanted the EGR disabled. 

I'll be in the same boat, as I'm having the Champion heads and intake installed this week.
