dissabling the ebpv
hey guys, since i did the muffler delete, when the ebpv engages in the morning while idleing, it sounds like a 747 warming up, so i want to dissable it for the summer, so is all i have to do is just unplug the two wire clip to stop it from engaging?

i love the sound that it makes when the rpms jump up to about 1200, but at 6 AM, i kinda dont want to bother anyone that is still sleeping, so they are lucky until next winter cause i will plug the sensor back in.
i like the look everyone has when the thing is screamin away and people are walking by wondering what the hell is wrong with that truck, haha
thanks, i will unplug the ebpv valve at the pedistal later, it raining out right now

I was thinking about doing the muffler delete myself, but I did not think of the ebpv. If this were to be disconnected year round, would it be hard on the engine? (wet stacking?) It does get cold here (-20F for little while last winter), but I plug my truck in every night in the winter.
