EGT's after EGR romoval ?

This is for the guys that have completely removed their egr system. How did it change your egt's, did they go down or stay the same? This is a mod that I am probably going to do very soon so I was just wondering.

Thanks guys !!!

yes your EGT's will be lower cuz you wont be breathing in hot exhaust gases anymore.

The bur will be more efficient so less fuel=less heat

Your Oil temps will also drop, The International design for some odd reason pushes the coolant through the egr cooler, superheating it and then using it to cool your oil... DUHH Also, make sure your kits uses a new 304 SS Up-pipe. The later version trucks utilize a scoop in the factory part that will block 40% of exhaust flow to the passenger bank when the valve is blocked or commanded off.

Just finished with the RCD complete egr delete kit. Drove around today and my egts went from 800 @ 55mph to 600 @ 55mph. My probe is on the exhaust manifold, if that helps you out any. It is definitely worth it.

Two and a half more years, my 06 is completely out of warranty. This is one of the first things I'm going to do!!
