I would like to know if you can remove the egr valve on efi system & what is needed to do it . 302 efi bronco 4x4 auto

Thank's, Don C.

 

why? there is no performance gain by removing the egr from an efi 5.0 in a bronco or f150

 

fordfuelinjection.com Just found this site it should help.

 

Yes, and it will tell you that removing the EGR is a futile endeavor. There is no reason to remove it. It is transparent as far as performance is concerned.

 

As the others have stated you will not notice any change in performance. You may notice more fuel useage as the intent of the EGR is to reduce the amount of incoming oxygen into the engine, which the O2 sensor balances the fuel ratio to the correct ratio, usually reducing fuel charge when the EGR is operating. Typically, the EGR only operates when you are moving at a constant pace (highway speeds), not on acceleration or deceleration. This isnt the "cheap" performance mod of yester year which the EGR/carburator combination did have noticable differences in performance changes.

You are better replacing rusted away/inoperable parts on this system, but you are not forced by anyone on this board to do so.
