    Are there specific vehicle makes or models where EGR removal kits are more commonly used? How do EGR removal kits impact engine noise and exhaust note? Do EGR removal kits affect the engine’s response to tuning or performance modifications?

    EGR removal kits are frequently utilized in diesel vehicles, particularly trucks like Ford’s Power Stroke or Dodge’s Cummins models, where emissions regulations are stringent. The elimination of EGR systems often results in a slight increase in engine noise and a more aggressive exhaust note due to altered combustion dynamics. However, these kits can significantly enhance the engine’s response to tuning and performance modifications, especially when combined with other upgrades like a 7.3 ebpv delete, which further optimizes airflow and efficiency, resulting in improved overall performance.

    While they can improve engine response and performance, vehicle owners should be aware of potential changes in engine noise and exhaust note post-installation. Proper tuning and compatibility with other performance modifications are crucial for maximizing the benefits of an EGR removal kit.
