EGR valve is tfitted for a reason, also being a HDI it will have a turbocharger fitted, removing / disabling the EGR valve will shorten the turbo's lifespan

i was pretty certain it's the other way around as when you clean your EGR valve its cacked in soot and oil
surely putting this through the turbo is a horrific idea

Read up on how the EGR system on a modern diesel works & you will see why disabling / blanking the EGR of is a stupid idea

well all i can find is reduced emissions and better cold starting but i have to agree with ExoVyper surely the abrasive nature of the soot that cokes up everything can only cause abrasive effects on the turbo fins and everything else? i cant really see the appeal of sticking that sort of mess through your intake system, if thats what goes though the system why do we have panel filters?

I'll take pictures of my alloy inlet for the 406 i got for an intercooler conversion and i haven't cleaned it yet. The amount of crap in that thing is disgusting... Especially around the egr port... The boost pipe however was nowhere near as bad but still minging im planning on welding off the egr port and blanking it that way i think
