How do I know if this part fits my vehicle?

We develop plates and kits for EGR valves, not for vehicles, simply because the same engine or valve can be found on a multitude of models. To check whether this product suits your vehicle, just look at the photos or the list of compatible engines. We show photos of engine blocks or valves. If yours matches, this product is compatible. You can also email us a photo of your engine for a quick answer.

How do I position/install this product?

See the product photos for a simple installation guide. An arrow or drawing guides you and serves as instructions. It is actually very simple. If you wish, you will also find a tube of engine silicone at the bottom of the page to perfect the sealing of the installation.

A warning light comes on, what should I do?

On recent engines (generally 2004 and later), a warning light may come on in the dashboard or the vehicle may switch to limp mode. In some cases, an electronic intervention may be needed to pair an electronic delete with this mechanical delete. It is also possible to drill the plate to create a "restrictor" orifice. It will let a small amount of exhaust gas through and prevent the ECU from detecting the modification.

Why delete the EGR valve?

Always with a view to gaining power and engine efficiency. We develop and sell parts for motorsport and engine performance. The EGR valve recirculates part of the exhaust gases into the intake in order to reduce the amount of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the exhaust, which contribute to air pollution, including ozone, and to fine particle precursors. Beyond fouling the engine and producing clouds of black smoke, this technique leans out the air/fuel mixture. Adding exhaust gas to the fresh air makes the vehicle sluggish. Blanking off the EGR valve improves combustion quality, which increases engine efficiency and torque. Your vehicle will therefore be more powerful and have more torque. Ideal for gaining a few hundredths at the start of races.
