EHM is bad, the CCV system on this engine requires the vacuum from the turbo suction to function properly.
See this thread, kinda long, but very informative:> viewtopic.php?f=5&t=80491
Most install a ProVent 200 filter to capture and separate any liquids coming out of the vapors from the CCV system before they enter the turbo inlet.
EGR removal.
Total EGR removal kits are available on eBay:>

After EGR removal, free DIY tunes are available on the DIY ECM Flash thread on LOST @:> viewtopic.php?f=98&t=78418
Reflashing with the CORRECT tune for your vehicle's ECM software version will get rid of the DTC (check engine light) that is set when the EGR & FCV are unplugged and totally removed.
Hi WWDiesel, thanks for the response.
I read a few pages of the thread you mentioned (it is kinda long indeed
but will finish it soon) and now I know the provent is needed to keep the vacuum. Thanks for that, my mind
was set on keep the EHM for budget purposes. I'm was going with the EHM because I was waiting for my EGR delete kit (Just got it in the mail
) and wanted to reduce soot as soon as possible, also all provent kits seem to be out of stock for now, I can only find the oil separator can (maybe I could use custom hoses while I wait for the catch can kit to come back). So now I have my delete kit and my MPPS cable with the software installed and I read the ECU file in notepad to know the correct tunes(808 EGR delete tune already downloaded and was wondering if it could be applied before the actual deletion). I'm ready to do the installation and was looking for an how-to to be sure I get everything right. This will be my first time doing this and will probably have a good mechanic friend with me but I would really like to understand where I'm going with this and know this stuff for myself and others to share with. Do you know if there is already a thread with instructions that I did not find in here? I read that they used to come with the week's kit but the one I got on ebay did not.
