egr delete

[Anti venom]

i have a 2000 SS camaro and was just wondering if it was worth geting the egr delete. or does it just make the engine bay look a little cleaner looking? is there any gain out of this mod?

[Ws6islife]

hmm do you even have egr? i whent through this lol i dnt think after 99 or 98 theres egr but im no expert but i dnt think there is any gains or losses, but its worth it it looks very clean in there and its problably a 15 to 30 min mod. if its even called a mod

[Dewman]

2000 and below had EGR, the only gain you will see from it is a cleaner engine bay

[Ws6islife]

there you go, i wasnt sure if they did or didnt but i knew there was no gain nor loss but cleaner engine bay belive me once u do that u have acces to lots of things and all that hose wont be in your way.

Correct answer^


You also shed some weight from the front end of the car.

and a tune is recommended afterwards to zero the EGR timing table.

ok so if i get the egr delet and get headers i can get the 01 02 style headers correct? insted of geting the ones for a 2000 that has the egr fitting in the passenger header... right? will they still fit?

[0rion]

yeah....they'll still fit.

if yor doing a EGR delete may as well add a WS6 intake. Pick them up cheap usually off a newer car that someone bought a Fast set up for.

so i can order the qtp's with out egr/air or will i still need to order ones with air? or can i get the race style (they are cheaper). i think they all have o2 bungs for the sensors

as long as you've removed the egr and a.i.r. systems they'll work. They all will have the O2 bungs in them....the difference between the years is the egr system. As long as you're egr and air systems are removed the race style will work.

LS6 intake, not WS6 intake

is the air system different from the egr? or are they the same?

2 different systems. The air system connects to both exhaust manifolds and has check valves. Lines run from those to a pump that's behind the drivers side headlight.
The EGR connects to the passenger manifold only and runs through the egr valve and into the top of the intake.

[Leeroyws6]

actually you might get a little more flow out of your intake when you delete the egr.because you dont have that big tube sticking down right behind the throttle body butterfly.im sure that egr tube is resricting flow.remove it and your intake will flow better.dont know if you will notice it,but it will flow better.

ok will i need o2 extentions?

You need 02 extensions if you are installing long tubes. I don't see any mention anywhere of you installing long tubes, so I would say no at this point. If you are simply removing your EGR system, you don't need 02 extensions for that.

yes i will be instaling long tubes

[Y2KPewterSS]

You will need 02 extensions, when you do the long tubes.

I would recommend o2's with the long leads instead of extensions. Bosch 13111 is what I'm running with no issues.
