EGR Delete Kits

SPELAB’s high-performance EGR Delete Kits are more than just a power upgrade — they’re a long-term solution for boosting reliability and optimizing your diesel engine’s overall performance. By addressing common EGR system failures, improving airflow, and enhancing fuel efficiency, SPELAB helps your Powerstroke, Cummins, or Duramax engine operate at its full potential.

1. What Is the EGR System? (Factory Configuration Overview)

From the factory, the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system is designed to reduce emissions by recirculating a portion of exhaust gases back into the intake manifold. This lowers combustion temperatures and helps reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions.

Here are the typical components of a factory EGR system:

• EGR Valve: An electronically controlled valve that regulates exhaust gas flow back into the intake.

• EGR Cooler: Cools the recirculated exhaust gases before they enter the engine, reducing temperature spikes.

• EGR Tube / Pipe: Carries exhaust gases from the exhaust manifold to the intake manifold.

• EGR Solenoid: Controls EGR valve operation electronically.

• EGR Sensors (Temperature / Pressure / Position): Monitor the EGR system in real-time.

• Differential Pressure Sensor: Measures pressure differences across the EGR system to track flow.

• Coolant Lines: Provide cooling to the EGR cooler unit.

• ECU (Engine Control Unit): Manages when and how the EGR system activates.

Diesel trucks — especially the 6.7L Cummins, 6.0L Powerstroke, and LML Duramax — are typically equipped with all of the above. While these components work together to meet emissions standards, they are prone to clogging, coolant leaks, and valve malfunctions under heavy loads or long-term use.

2. What Changes After Installing a SPELAB EGR Delete Kit?

SPELAB’s EGR Delete Kits are engineered for precision and reliability across all major diesel platforms — Powerstroke, Cummins, and Duramax — and are designed to simplify the engine’s exhaust recirculation system while maintaining core performance integrity.

After installing a delete kit, here’s what changes:

• EGR Valve & Cooler → Removed or blocked off, disabling exhaust gas recirculation.

• EGR Tubes → Disconnected or sealed at both ends with block-off plates.

• Solenoids & Sensors → Disconnected from function, and EGR-related codes suppressed via ECU tuning (EZ Lynk, EFI Live, etc.).

• ECU Logic → Modified to permanently disable EGR control, preventing CELs like P0401 or P0402.

• Coolant Lines → Rerouted or capped off to bypass the former EGR cooling system.

• Intake Airflow → Clean air only — no exhaust recirculation, leading to better combustion and response.

• Engine Operation → Runs cooler and cleaner, with reduced carbon buildup and improved turbo & engine longevity.

3. Why Choose a SPELAB EGR Delete Kit?

SPELAB’s EGR Delete Kits are more than just hardware — they’re engineered performance solutions tailored for diesel truck owners who demand reliability, power, and efficiency.

Here’s what sets them apart:

9. FAQ

Looking for where to buy an EGR delete kit for your truck? You’re in the right place — SPELAB offers vehicle-specific delete kits for RAM, Powerstroke, Duramax, and EcoDiesel platforms.

Q1: Is it legal to install an EGR Delete Kit on my diesel truck?
EGR Delete Kits are intended for off-road, race, competition, or agricultural-use vehicles only. In many regions — especially California, New York, and Canada — modifying emissions systems on street-legal vehicles is illegal and may result in fines or inspection failure.
Always check your state emissions laws before installing any EGR, DPF, or CCV delete kit.

Q2: Do I need a tuner to install an EGR Delete Kit?
While some older models like 2003–2007 5.9L Cummins or LB7 Duramax may function without tuning, most modern trucks (especially 6.7L Cummins, LML Duramax, and 6.7L Powerstroke) require a tuner to prevent fault codes and ensure proper ECU behavior.
We highly recommend using EFI Live, EZ Lynk, or SCT compatible tuning when installing a delete kit.

Q3: What codes will an EGR Delete Kit fix?
Common codes that EGR deletes help resolve include:

• P0401 – EGR flow insufficient

• P0402 – EGR flow excessive

• P0405 – EGR sensor low circuit

• P2002 / P2463 – DPF soot accumulation (when combined with full delete kits)
  EGR delete kits help prevent recurring CELs and improve overall engine diagnostics.

Q4: Will deleting my EGR valve improve MPG and engine life?
Absolutely — many users report a 5–15% fuel economy improvement after removing the EGR system, especially when combined with DPF and CCV deletes.
With cleaner airflow, no hot exhaust recirculation, and reduced soot buildup, your engine runs cooler, cleaner, and more efficiently — especially on tuned Duramax and Cummins trucks.

Q5: How do I choose the right EGR Delete Kit for my truck?
Use our vehicle selector tool to match your make, model, year, and engine.
Still unsure? Contact our diesel expert support team, and we’ll recommend the right EGR delete, whether you're driving a 2006 F350 6.0L, 2018 RAM 2500 6.7L, or 2015 Silverado LML.

Q6: How much does an EGR delete kit cost?

SPELAB EGR delete kits typically range from $149 to $299, depending on your vehicle's make and model. We offer high-quality kits tailored for various diesel engines, ensuring performance, durability, and value.
