i have a 05 powerstroke!
i was wondering which egr delete kit is the best and always not so expensive
Also i read the sct programmers will delete the egr to?!?!?!?

 

ive got a sinister kit and like it but honestly most of them r the same. some r cheaply made but i like my kit. heard alot about gogodiesels to but i cant speak to that

 

Sinister and RCD are the inexpensive good ones to get. They are a full delete, meaning the EGR valve and EGR cooler are removed, and they both have a stainless up-pipe to replace the factory job with the scoop in it. They can be had for around $200 now a days on ebay.

For top of the line, I'd give the nod to Doug from GoGo's EGR delete setup, since he actually machines the coolant passage on the intake manifold clean off, and then the coolant never enters the intake again. He also has a "race" application intake manifold with the EGR delete built in, but that's $1200 and overkill for a stock truck, but still well worth the cost for the EGT reduction and quicker spool-up.

Adam from FCDP also has a really nice setup. Both Dougs and Adams kit's are not reversible, unless you buy a new intake manifold, so that's something else to think about. Their kits are more like $500-$600, not including core charge on the manifolds.

There are also guys who have hammered freeze plugs into the EGR cooler and welded them in... accomplishes the same thing for the most part, but costs less than $1.

 

Where are you located? Do you have emissions testing?
