uuhhhh? 
Nope, thats the connector for the EBPV solenoid.
Yeap, Im agree with you.
Ill find a write up for gut the EBPV, the only negative I can see is that you cant use it as an exhaust brake, all of the others are positive things, the main IMO is decrease the EGTs.

Also here is a pic for another option (replease it) and a better pic of the EBP TUBE in the back of the HPOP.

There are no negatives to taking it out.
There is an actuator valve on the pedestal, follow that to the lever underneath, wire that sucker open, which is where it should be while it's off. There is a huge spring in there to keep it open, but it fails from what I can tell.
Just use some wire and wire it open. If you need to look at what your doing, take the DP off and look right in the end of the exhaust on the turbo. You'll see a huge butterfly valve on a 1/2 inch rod. Its a huge exhaust restriction if you ask me.
Make sure you unplug it on the other side of the turbo also.

If you read up on this, it can only be used in certain situations and certain RPM bands.
just my opinion on it.

it measures exhaust back pressure. has nothing to do with the operation of the valve.
That is determined by the AIS which is on the intake filter, and a few other things.

Now that I think of it, I have an extra on my other truck if you want it. Although I cannot guarantee it is clear and after shipping and all it is probably easier to go get one. But if you like...

Be careful with the sensor, that puppy is slightly over 100 dollars.
Mine was accidently broken while installing a 3" down pipe and 4" exhaust.
The codes it set while broken did affect, not in a good way, how the truck ran till I got a replacement.

I use it as an effective exhaust brake, and Im very happy with it, as many others, for instance IIRC, Neal.
What does AIS stand for? I didnt find in my acronyms and definitions list, maybe you mean: IAT: Intake Air Temperature.

The only thing the EBPV sensor does along with AIT sensor is help the PCM determine duty cycle of the EBPV. It has everything to do with the operation of the valve.

Do you know if the # part of the tube from RockAuto is to connect with the sensor behind the HPOP. Yours is in front or in the back?
