DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
- The factory EGR cooler is widely recognized as the primary cause of engine failure on the 6.0L Ford Powerstroke . Over time, internal EGR cooler leaks drop engine coolant levels, leading to severe overheating, blown head gaskets, and hydro-locked engines.
- The 6.0L All-in-One Kit provides a permanent solution to safeguard your Super Duty engine. By replacing the restrictive factory EGR cooler with a heavy-duty stainless steel up-pipe and re-routing coolant flow away from the intake system, this kit completely eliminates soot recirculating back into your engine.
Key Features
- Mandrel-Bent T304 Stainless Build: Crafted from thick-wall SS tubing with precision TIG welds to withstand extreme diesel thermal cycling without cracking.
- Lowers Operating Temperatures: Directs hot exhaust gases straight out through a smooth stainless steel up-pipe, significantly reducing intake manifold and coolant temperatures.
- Restores Turbo Spool & Throttle Response: Eliminates soot and carbon buildup inside the intake manifold to restore crisp turbo response and low-end towing power.
- Solves Blown Head Gaskets & EGT Spikes: Replaces the failure-prone factory EGR cooler to prevent coolant leaks into intake manifolds, blown head gaskets, and cracked oil coolers.
FAQ
Q: Why does a 6.0L Powerstroke need an EGR delete kit?
A: Clogged oil cooler debris often ruptures factory 6.0L EGR coolers, causing coolant leaks that blow head gaskets or hydro-lock engines. Deleting the EGR cooler permanently removes this risk.
Q: Do I need to remove the turbo to install this EGR delete kit?
A: Yes. Removing the turbocharger is necessary to access and swap the factory up-pipe behind the engine block. Replacing turbo mounting hardware and oil feed line seals during this service is highly recommended.
Q: Does removing the EGR system lower engine operating temperatures?
A: Yes. Preventing 1,200°F+ exhaust gas from entering the EGR cooler lowers both coolant and engine oil temperatures, keeping your cooling system operating efficiently during heavy towing.
Q: Can I keep my factory EGR valve plugged in under the hood?
A: Yes. Many owners re-install the factory EGR valve into the intake manifold purely as an electrical dummy plug. This maintains factory fan clutch engagement signals on certain computer calibrations.
