2006 F250 IN CA EGR DELETE???
I have a 2006 F250. I would like to do a EGR delete but im not sure if it will pass smog or not. I have heard that the smogs are a joke and the guys doing them either have no idea what they are looking for or they dont care. If this is not the case is there a stealth egr delete that makes it look intact or possibly and alternative that is just as good? any advice would be appreciated!!

Yes actually there is, And its cheap if you can weld. You have to take the cooler off and weld plugs in both ends, then you have to cut the scoop out of your up pipe. Reassemble and Viola egr delete with stock parts!
|
:humm: If your worried about emissions with the delete you could put a bullet proof egr cooler from bullet proof diesel
|
UNless your in a rural area Id go with teh Bullet Proof EGR cooler. All though sometimes when doing a smog inspection some tech dont know what to look for and you could get away with it. But thats taking a chance. Ill be doing a delete when my truck hits 100k and goes off warranty. Only because I have it registered in a rural area where they dont do Bi annual smog inspections. Only time the inspections are done is when you either sell the truck are register it if it hadnt been done before.
|
or there is also the smog guys in cali that if u through them a couple extra bucs they look the other way:w2:
|
thanks for all the good advice!! does the bullet proof egr cooler look stock??? i also like the idea of the delete with stock parts!!
|
The Bullet Proof is better then stock. Looks just a tad different as its built Bullet Proof. Here is the link to the site. BulletProof EGR Coolers
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- great. After posting my last response I now need to order my Bullet Proof EGR and Oil cooler. Degas bottle went from full to almost empty today. No smoke yet but its runing funny. Two times truck wouldnt start and after inspecting my EGR and inside the intake I found that inside the intake is one big gooey mess.:argh: Kinda like tar.:argh: Off to Ford next week and see what they will do about it. I dont want no OEM EGR or Oil coolers so got to find out if they will refund me the difference of cost from the OEM and the Bullet Proof?? Thank god it happened now and not in Nov when my warranty expires..... |
BPD make deletes too>>>BulletProofDiesel - Darn-Near Bullet Proof Diesel Products for your 6.0 Just be careful because eventually the Gov will get smart and start checking for EGR flow...
|
Delete with stock parts is what I did.

There is a setup on ebay, generally around 150 bucks, blocks cooler at both ends has all the gaskets needed, it uses I think it is a 25mm freeze plug on the exhaust side of the cooler, put several of these in and there is no way to tell anything is changed

Why not just go to the auto parts store and buy the freeze plugs for $0.50 a piece? Seems like $150 is a little steep for some freeze plugs... |
Bigman, $150 is the cost of a cheap Actual delete kit. with the cooler deleted, new up pipe, and valve plate
|
|
Maybe my eyes are deceiving me, but that up-pipe pictured looks like a straight piece of tube... that would never mount up. The up-pipe has a slight bend in it.

More than likely you're right. I suppose a quick email wouldn't hurt. I wonder what material his up-pipe is...

does anyone have any experiance dealing with the check engine light with a delete?? i think the stealth delete with stock parts is the smartest way but im still on the fence. the bullet proof egr cooler is legal but you still get exhaust routed through the intake which causes problems of its own..

I wish, remember this is for a stealth kit for the poor folks that live in Ca. also in the kit is the intake gaskets, turbo mounting kit and gaskets, it has every part that is needed to block off the cooler on both sides, you can have a blown cooler and still use this kit. No it does not have the new up pipe, you don't need that to do the block off, if you remove the coole all the way as with some kits then you will need it....The whole point of this thread is how to block off the egr without the GOV. knowing that it aint doin squat, the valve stays in but the cooler is blocked off with a solid gasket and plate on intake side and plug on exhaust side so the cooler can be attached to the up-pipe but id does nothing///sorry I didn't explain more about the kit in my first post
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- This is a block off, not delete, remember this thread is about Ca. smog check, if they pop hood and see egr cooler and valve gone it could cost him alot of $$
