EGR PROBLEMS

HAVE A 2005 F350 . WHICH HAS A BUSTED EGR COOLER
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT ADVANTAGES THE EGR DELETE OR THE EGR BYPASS COULD DO FOR IT.
I WOULD ASSUME THE OIL COOLER NEEDS TO HAVE SOMETHING DONE TO IT AS WELL?
IF I GO THAT ROUTE IS THAT ALL I NEED TO DO?
THE TRUCK HAS 200K AND HAS NO MODS. I REALLY DON'T WANT ANY MODS. IT RUNS AND PULLS FINE. ALTHOUGH IT COULD USE A LITTLE BETTER FUEL MILEAGE.

lots of info on this subject with the search function it easy to find.
you dont say what state you live in. So its hard to advise wich way may be better.
have you looked at the bullet proof coolers.
you will need some kind of tuner to keep the check engine light off too either way you go.

replace the oil cooler, put in an egr delete, and if you get a tuner go with sct and get a tow tune, get a set of guages to keep an eye on egts and youll be good to go. There is tons of different egr deletes, just use the search function and read about some of the different ones people have put it, they all do the same thing.
