Mackdaddy2030 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I am looking at an '05 Vision with a 460 and the EGR problems scare me a little. I have been looking all over, including on here, and cant find any information on a delete kit. Can anyone help me out?

rsb502 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Not much to delete on an 05 there's no dpf, no screen, just egr and on those the turbos gave more trouble than anything else. I think the Borg Warner replacement turbos solved those issues but staxx would be the one to ask for sure.

raydurr Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I have performed disabling the EGR system on two of my CHNs.I first removed the EGR valve.I used the mounting gasket to make a block off plate from 1/8 steel plate. If you use thicker than 1/8 ,the studs wont be long enough.replace the valve with plate and gasket.I then removed the EGR cooler.I welded plugs inside each hose nipple w a mig.I did nothing to the coolant nipples,only the air passages.I then took to MACK dealer.They were able to program around the codes .Sorry I dont know how.Engine lamp rarely comes on.No noticable change in perfromance. These mods were done over 2 years ago. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30897-egr-delete-kit/#findComment-179909 Share on other sites More sharing options...
