I did the PCV reroute, and put on the AFE turbo inlet. Changed oil to synthetic.

You definitely want to block your EGR too... If you've ever taken your EGR riser pipe off, that black gunk that's in there is actually oil from your PCV valve mixed with soot from your exhaust gasses. And all that gunk is what's going into your motor. Even if you leave all the emissions equipment in place, block the valve and the cooler. It'll be worth it in the long run. You'll need either a finger stick, EFI live or a PPE tuner to get rid of the codes though.
