Hi to all! To those that have the egr deleted,are there any performance gains?
How did you do it,just plug up everything? Thanks.

There are many ways to delete/deactivate the EGR.
Remember that the EGR does not activate during "performance runs", i.e. WOT.
Therefore, if the EGR is not leaking, it should not result in "performance gains".

I still have the EGR on the car.

People always debate performance when talking about EGR removal. I look at it like this- It's ugly and clutters things up, so why not get rid of it.

Reason I asked was because I have intake off for porting and noticed that the inside of intake where the turbo go's,shows an uneven bump in the middle that would disrupt the flow.Especially if egr is open blowing air in or against the turbo blow.Thanks

my intake had the EGR "hump" ground almost to a point (smooth rouned top, ported polished and all that) with the EGR plugged up with what seems to be JB weld.
