stealth egr delete

just did a test drive with my 04 6 liter, I did the stealth egr delete. I had a P0400 error code any concern?

Thanks for the help

Several tuners on the market that can clear it, and keep it clear. I think you can do it with the torque pro app as well.

Insight is a gauge and won't clear it.

InSight is also a code reader and is able to clear codes.

The code will recur. You can delete the stored code as many times as you want, but it takes a tuner to disable the coding otherwise it will just keep coming back on until you change the programming. I can turn off the CEL temporarily by deleting codes with my Insight, but it comes back until I use the SCT 3015 to disable the EGR valve.

Gotcha..my misunderstanding. So it will clear codes, but not permenantly.

Thanks for the info, on another note. Is there a way to "easily" disable my '04 from starting...theft deterrent.

Pull the FICM relay. It won't start without it.

Exact pressures I don't know. I never had excessive pressures or venting from the degas. Heads were done under warranty by Ford when it had I think 24,000 miles around 2007. I have on it 155,000 miles plus.
I'll warn again watch the temps and boost. High boost you're looking for trouble in my opinion based on my experiences.
