Someone needs to invent EGR delete in a bottle. Just pour it in and call it good!

egr delete

not a big deal , about 10 hours for me, but i also upgraded the turbo oil drain pipe, cleaned the vanes on the turbo and replaced the oil psi. sending unit all at the same time. i also anodized the alum. intake manifold since i had it out. coul have been a 5-6 hour if not for the extras. AND what an improvement in throttle response, and lower egt's while pulling. well worth the elimination

It's not completely removing the intake, more like loosening the intake. The RCD kit has instructions on how to do it without complete removal and their kit is nice. You're still going to have to pull the turbo though.

After you installed the kit, did it throw a code? If so, did you get a tuner for it to by pass the code...(if so) what kind did you buy? Thanks for the help, just want to do it right the first time!

No need unbolt the intake lift it up. remove the y-pipe and slide it out.
personaly I would rather pull an intake then fight the y-pipe method. besides. that wont get you to the oil cooler to rebuild it.

No I meant to get the EGR cooler and intake out without removing the turbo. Only removing the intake. But then again, you prolly know tricks that I dont
