ahh yes good point. if i were you i would do an egr delete. im pretty sure they make block-off plates .
although, my 96 ram had that divider and it was non-egr. they have changed a lil bit on the newer 5.9's , my harmonic balancer is completly different that the older models. found out the hard way, got a underdrive pully kit and it wouldnt work, i think it was for 95-01.

 

to tell you the trut my new intake came with an egr block off plate can i delete it? and not have check engine light?

 

where there is a will there is a way... ive heard of this being done before. never had to deal with egr myself. ask over in 2nd gen, i think thats where i heard about it.
is there a sensor on the egr?

 

yea, im just gunna keep the egr...its gunna be to much of a hassle

 

delete it.. if you buy a tuner you can shut it off. youll gain a lil from it and its just not needed

 

i agree!

 

Ive got a 2000 Durango 5.9 R/T. I want in!!

 

i deleted the egr pipe, but not the valve. thats next, i dont have the plate for it. but put it this way. I just put in a new ported and polished intake manifold with kegger mod, wit hughes plate. new cap/rotor, plugs, coil, fuel injectors cleaned. and lets just say this. ive gone 218 miles (40% highway, 60% city) so far on this tank, and i have a little under half a tank still. Shes gettin aesome mpgs right now, and the power difference is incredible.

 

welcome Tigers R/t, you are # 42.

 

i'll bet. does your truck throw codes with egr pipe gone and the valve still there?
