it does I just did it, it clears the guts of the ebpv out letting it flow better, getting the 1.0 exhaust housing along with it helps alot. Actual temp drop will necessarily vary depending on mods and different trucks and such. But I'm happy with my temp drops!

I paid $399 for all three (1.0 housing, delete ped, and cover plate)from LIPD, worth every penny

What is the performance advantage to having lower EGT's or is there any performance advantage to be had?

The outlet on the non-ebpv flanges are usually larger in diameter, closer to the OD of the turbine wheel's exducer (what you can see looking in). That means lower EGTs because of less restriction. A lower EGT is always better when towing, it means more efficiency and easier on parts.

I'm not sure if the non-ebpv plate contributed to lowering my egt's, since I also threw in a 6.0L intercooler at the same time. However, I no longer have to worry about it closing up in cold weather, and no more pesky oil leak from the actuator rod. Well worth it in my book.
