non-EGR intake

[LukeZ]

Sorry, this may be a dumb question. Go easy haha

Can you put a non-EGR intake on an engine that initially came with an EGR intake? Any benefits to doing that? I understand that most people say doing an EGR delete is ghetto and a waste since it really does nothing except make your car run worse without a tune up. I'm talking about a completely new manifold though.

Reason I'm asking is it seems like most aftermarket intakes that have EGR are always more expensive than their non-EGR counterparts. It'd be nice to save a couple bucks.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge lol

The EGR lowers the combustion chamber temperatures and does not make the engine run worse if it is working properly. Without the EGR you'll need to back off your timing a few degrees. Before you install the intake stuff steel wool in the EGR port in the head so the exhaust will not overheat that area of the intake
