Elite Diesel- EGR Delete with External Wastegate Ford Powerstoke 6.4
14550001
Pricing:
$1,200.00
Description
This kit allows for the complete removal of the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system from your truck. Kit utilizes the existing EGR exhaust port to incorporate an external wastegate to allow control of high exhaust backpressure. The 6.4L engine was designed to use EGR as a wastegate of sorts and has 25% EGR flow at max power. For peak performance EGR is not desired and with many tuning programs the EGR is turned off. With the EGR turned off the exhaust backpressure jumps to overly high levels resulting in lost power and un-needed stress on engine components. This kit is recommend for all power levels but becomes a necessity when power gains exceed 300hp. Kit includes all necessary components to eliminate EGR coolers from vehicle. The base kit requires you to weld in the wastegate pipe to your existing downpipe and can be difficult to install without raising the cab. If you would rather not perform any welding or do not have access to lift your cab then we recommend our pre-welded kit. Kit requires SCT Livewire, SCT Xtreme Touchscreen, or Fusion/Phalanx Custom Tuner to work properly. This modification is for competition use only. Installing this kit on your truck will make it illegal to use in any manner in which federal or local emission laws apply (which means pretty much any form of daily driving).

I just wanted to share a few things with everyone that I thought might help if you are thinking of using this kit / doing this mod.
I used this kit along with an additional pre-welded kit that came with a pre-welded up pipe and downpipe as well as the CFM+ elbow and adapter plate. This in my opinion was well worth it for an additional $400 for a 4in down pipe replacement and not having to bring stuff to a welder and try to get it right when you have one ready to go. I did this install cab on which was a mistake. It took me 2 1/2 days to do and was very frusterating... after talking with my local ford dealer they said they could pull and re-install the cab for $300.00 which would have been way worth it...with the cab off this install could be mostly all done with in 1/2 a day and well worth the 300 to have someone else pull the cab... I was also not to happy about the manual wastegate controller... I would recomend using a AMS1000 of a electronic controller to be more acurate.
- I notice after the install that the wastegate and pipe were scary close to firewall and insulation on it.. I would recommend tacking up the insulation better in that area or install a small aluminum heat sheild. Overall the kit is well constructed but I caution do it yourselfers to have this one professionally done or in the company of someone with a good mechanical background...
