FAQ

Is this EGR delete kit legal for use on my 2016 Ram 2500?

It is marketed for off-road or race use and is not for public-road emissions-controlled vehicles. An off-road label does not itself create an emissions-law exemption. Check the requirements applicable to the vehicle and its use before installation.

Will the 2017 Ram 2500 EGR delete kit affect the ECU or require a tuner?

The hardware change can trigger ECU fault codes and requires compatible calibration. The original FAQ recommends EFI Live or another compatible tuner; no tuner or calibration is included in the listed combinations. Confirm compatibility with the truck's existing setup before installation.

Does the 2018 Ram 2500 kit include everything needed for installation?

The EGR/valve package includes the listed block-off, throttle-valve, coolant reroute, sealing and support hardware. Exhaust parts depend on the selected combination. Tools, replacement coolant and compatible calibration are separate requirements; compare the delivered parts with the packing list before starting.

Can I install the kit on my 2016 Ram 2500 myself?

The original installation estimate is 3–5 hours for this moderately complex job; experience, vehicle condition and the selected combination can change the time required. Experienced DIYers may perform the work, while professional installation is recommended for anyone unfamiliar with coolant, EGR and intake-system service.

What towing improvements might a 2017 Ram 2500 show?

The original product information describes more responsive throttle, improved torque delivery and cooler exhaust temperatures under load. Results vary with configuration and conditions. These changes do not increase the manufacturer's tow rating or replace checks of engine, cooling and transmission condition.

Will it affect the warranty on my 2018 Ram 2500?

Emissions-system modifications can affect coverage for related engine, powertrain or emissions claims. Consult the dealer and applicable warranty terms for the vehicle's circumstances before modifying it.

Is it compatible with aftermarket turbos or intercoolers on my 2016 Ram 2500?

The existing product information states compatibility with stock and most aftermarket setups. Confirm the particular turbo, intake, intercooler piping, brackets and calibration before installation; that statement is not a guarantee for every custom build.

Does installation on a 2017 Ram 2500 require coolant draining?

Yes. Coolant must be drained and captured as required for cooler removal and coolant rerouting. Follow the packaged manual and vehicle service procedure for draining, refilling and checking for leaks.

Will my 2018 Ram 2500 run cleaner or emit less soot?

Blocking EGR reduces soot entering the intake through the recirculation path. That is different from reducing overall vehicle emissions, which may increase after emissions controls are removed or disabled. Existing intake deposits still require separate attention.

Can I reinstall the factory EGR system on my 2016 Ram 2500?

Reinstallation may be possible if the original components are retained and undamaged, although it can be labor-intensive. Restoring the hardware also requires checking the associated connections and compatible factory configuration.

What is the difference between the listed combinations?

The EGR/valve option contains the EGR cooler and throttle-valve conversion hardware. Options marked “+DPF Delete” add a DPF delete pipe, and those marked “with Muffler” also include the muffler configuration. Choose the color and combination together; the base option does not include the exhaust pipe.

Is the cylindrical part an oil catch can?

No. The flanged cylindrical component in this kit is the throttle-valve delete tube identified in the installation instructions. This listing does not include a separate CCV oil catch can.

Will every truck gain 20% in fuel economy?

No. The product's stated improvement is up to 20%, rather than a guaranteed gain. Engine condition, calibration, load, route and driving conditions affect the actual result.

What should I check if a coolant bypass connection leaks?

Allow the engine to cool and have the installer check the adapter seating, O-ring condition, retaining collar, hose clamps and support arrangement against the instructions. Do not assume the kit resolves every cause of coolant loss or continue operating with an unresolved leak.

Benefits & Function

On the 2013–2018 Ram 2500/3500 6.7L Cummins, the block-off plates stop exhaust returning through the EGR path, reducing that source of intake soot. The coolant adapter and hose bypass the removed cooler, while the throttle-valve delete tube replaces the listed throttle assembly. This addresses the EGR soot, heat load and recurring valve/cooler maintenance described in the existing product information.

Potential benefits include restored response and torque delivery, cooler operation under load, longer engine life and lower EGR repair costs. The stated fuel-economy improvement is up to 20%; results depend on engine condition, calibration, load and use. This does not increase the truck's rated towing capacity or remove existing deposits. DPF-related hardware changes apply only to combinations that include the DPF pipe; the EGR-only kit is not a DPF repair.

Installation Overview

For the detailed installation procedure, please refer to the installation instructions included in the package.

1. Prepare the truck and parts. Allow the engine to cool, disconnect the batteries and drain/capture coolant as directed. Compare the received parts with the instructions and selected combination.
2. Access the EGR and throttle assemblies. Remove the covers, dipstick supports and crossover components specified in the manual. Protect open ports and retain factory parts identified for reuse.
3. Install the intake-side hardware. Follow the manual for the EGR block-off plate and throttle-valve delete tube, using the specified seals, gasket and fasteners.
4. Complete the cooler-side work. Follow the cooler-removal sequence and install the front and rear block-off plates. Fit the support components according to the supplied instructions.
5. Connect the coolant bypass. Seat the standpipe adapter and O-ring, secure its retaining collar, and connect the supplied fittings, hose and clamps. Check that the assembly is supported without hose strain.
6. Refill, reassemble and inspect. Restore coolant to vehicle specifications, reassemble removed components and check the connections for leaks during testing. Investigate warning lights and confirm configuration requirements before use.

See the 2013–2018 Ram 6.7L Cummins installation guide. Exhaust-pipe and muffler installation requirements depend on the selected combination.
