Why? With the SEGR installed the EGR is not doing anything. That said if you want it gone see viewtopic.php?f=5&t=78238 . Depending on what exactly you remove and whether or not you get this kit you will need to plug a) the exhaust to EGR route (can be done as far "upstream" as the exhaust manifold); b) the intake elbow to EGR line (kit does this or you can plug the outlet on the elbow); and c) plug or reroute the EGR coolant lines.

Personally I'd invest in a GDE tune as it does more good for the engine than just the SEGR but heh that's just me.

I just did this same thing on my dd rig. I took every thing off. Starting with the intake elbow fcv,egr cooler, and coolant hoses. I made my own parts since there isn't much to the kit and I wanted red. The only thing I'm missing is plug caps. I just saw some one found those. I figured it's already "off" why not remove them. I'm sure all the tin foil hat people will comment but this is my jeep and there are many like it :BANANA: :dizzy:

Well, I am obviously biased, but I have just the thing for you... :D

My Intake Elbow Kit includes the following:

  • Intake manifold adapter (6061 aluminum)
  • Intake elbow, 2.5" (6061 aluminum)
  • High-pressure, high-temp, reinforced silicon coupler
  • T-bolt hose clamps, stainless steel (2)
  • EGR valve block-off plate (6061 aluminum)
  • Stud kit (4x 50mm studs, 4x vibration resistent nuts) to replace factory bolts (not pictured)
  • L-Bracket and hardware to secure vacuum line (not pictured)
  • New Mopar gasket
  • Step-by-step installation instructions with annotated photos (not pictured)

This completely disables the EGR system (no more soot in the engine), but leaves the EGR valve, EGR cooler and exhaust-side EGR tube IN PLACE for easy reversal (if you sell the vehicle or need to pass an emissions test).

If you want to fully remove the EGR valve, EGR cooler/plumbing and exhaust-side EGR tube you will also need:

  • 5/8" hose coupler and clamps
  • M12x1.5 plug
  • Custom exhaust manifold v-band block-off solution


More info on the kit can be found in my signature.

Or you can just use your egr block on the tube coming from turbo. That coolant hose on the block is a :furious:

The weeks101 kit is nice but IMO to pay that much. Then have to change out for red reducer. Plus having to still weld in a bung for tubo. If you don't have the resources to do so it great. I do love seeing new crd stuff.
