Egr cooler & cfm intake questions

If I buy the egr plates will that keep my from blowing a EGR cooler. What all needs to be done to run the egr delete plates. Also I was looking at the adapter plate and the cfm intake elbow. What All do I need to to run the intake elbow. I read that you loose your cruise control with the cfm intake but was curious if they made a box you could plug in to get it back... Thanks

The plates can be ran with just tuning. H&S would have to write you tunes to get rid of the P0401 code the plates cause. It won't cause drivability issues, you will just have a CEL on all the time. As for the adapter plate and cruise control issue, H&S could fix the crusise control issue through tuning.

Cool so I dont have to run a BOV or wastegate? Will the egr plates keep my from blowing the cooler though. Im not sure how all that stuff works yet.

The plates without a wastegate is going to increase drive pressure. The BOV is going to help your turbo's no matter what. The plates won't prevent the cooler from busting, it will prevent your motor from filling with water if they did bust.

Ok that makes sense! Does anyone make a BOV kit?
