DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
-
Stock EGR components on the Ford 6.7L Powerstroke present a ongoing threat to long-term powertrain health. Rerouting hot, carbon-laden exhaust back through the intake tract creates restrictive soot deposits, robs throttle response, and frequently throws OBD check engine codes or forces driveability limits. Furthermore, thermal cycling routinely causes OEM cooler core fractures, resulting in hidden coolant consumption and severe engine failure.
- Engineered to eradicate these failure points, our Heavy-Duty 6.7 Powerstroke EGR Delete Kit includes an advanced coolant flow bypass plate. This design securely caps the exhaust intake while maintaining uninterrupted coolant circulation. The result is up to a 36°F drop in surrounding operating temperatures and absolute protection against power-robbing manifold sludge.
Key Features
- Fabricated from premium 6061 billet aluminum and high-strength 304 stainless steel plates capable of withstanding diesel exhaust temperatures up to 1,472°F
- Completely isolates diesel soot from the intake manifold, keeping cylinders fed with only fresh, clean air and eliminating valve clogging permanently
- Delivers proven temperature reductions—pre-delete area temperatures drop by up to 36°F, with an additional 12.6°F reduction in general under-hood ambient temperatures to extend sensor and wiring life
- Reduces exhaust circuit backpressure for faster turbo acceleration spool, sharper throttle response, and more consistent power delivery under heavy towing loads
FAQ
Q: Why does this kit use a pass-through plate instead of a simple flat block-off?
A: The 6.7L cooling circuit requires fluid to continuously move through the rear section of the engine block. A pass-through design keeps coolant actively flowing through the loop track while permanently sealing out exhaust gases—maintaining stable engine pressures without the need for complex custom plumbing modifications.
Q: Can I reuse my factory EGT sensor with the stainless steel exhaust plate?
A: Yes. The 304 stainless steel exhaust block-off plate comes pre-drilled and tapped with a standard 1/8" NPT port, allowing you to thread in either your factory Exhaust Gas Temperature probe or an aftermarket gauge sensor without modification.
Q: Will this delete hardware work without reprogramming the truck’s computer?
A: No—the 6.7L PCM continuously monitors the EGR loop through differential sensors. Removing any components without an emissions-off delete tuner will trigger codes such as P0401 or P040F and force the truck into limp mode. A software flash is mandatory before removing any hardware.
Q: Why do 2015-2016 model years need an extra coolant reroute hose?
A: Ford revised the secondary cooling system plumbing and quick-connect hardware specifically for the 2015 and 2016 model years. While the main block-off plates fit every 6.7L application, 2015-2016 trucks require a custom-length additional reroute hose to properly bridge the updated coolant path back to the water pump.
Q: What if I prefer not to reinstall the factory EGT sensor into the exhaust plate?
A: If your tuning software has disabled EGT monitoring and you no longer want to reuse the fragile OEM sensor, the exhaust block-off plate can be easily plugged. The kit provides a clean setup that allows you to install the included threaded plug for a tidy, simplified engine bay.
