Why Does Your Cummins Need an EGR Delete?
Soot Coats the Intake Manifold
The stock EGR pumps carbon-laden exhaust back into the intake, and that soot bakes onto the manifold and valves until airflow drops. A delete removes the source so the intake stays clean between services.
Higher EGTs and Lost Power
Recirculated exhaust gas displaces fresh air, which raises exhaust gas temperatures and blunts throttle response. Taking the EGR out of the loop lets the engine make the power it was built for.
Cooler Failures and Coolant Leaks
The EGR cooler runs hot coolant through a small core that cracks with age, leaking into the intake and the oil. Deleting it removes a known failure point on high-mileage Cummins.
What Can a Cummins EGR Delete Solve?
Cleaner Intake, Cooler Charge
With the EGR gone, the intake sees only fresh air, so charge temperatures drop and the manifold stays carbon-free. Cleaner air means more consistent combustion.
Lower EGTs Under Load
Less spent gas in the cylinder means lower exhaust gas temperatures under tow and climb, which protects the turbo and pistons during hard pulls.
No More Cooler Leaks
Removing the cooler ends the slow coolant loss and white smoke that a cracked core causes, keeping the cooling system honest.

Engine Architecture Notes Behind Cummins EGR Delete
The 6.7L Cummins runs an EGR valve and a separate throttle valve in series, so a complete delete addresses both the valve and the cooler to stop the soot path. The 5.9L and early 6.7L trucks share the same Ram chassis and use a similar cooler layout, while the ISX and X15 commercial engines route the EGR through a larger cooler that our plug kits bypass. On every platform, the ECM watches the EGR position, so the delete must be paired with delete-capable tuning to keep the computer from setting codes and derating.
The 2007.5-2012, 2013-2019, and Cab and Chassis runs differ in cooler shape and throttle valve location, so matching the kit to the exact generation matters. A wrong-gen plate will not seal the port, and a misrouted bypass dumps coolant.
Maintenance Tips for Cummins EGR Delete
Delete kits are fit-and-forget, but a few habits keep them honest for the life of the truck.
- Seat the plate flat - torque the billet plate evenly, because a warped seal leaks boost straight out of the port.
- Load the tune - flash the matching delete-capable calibration, because the ECM logs the missing EGR the moment it wakes and derates.
- Use the NPT port wisely - the pre-tapped 1/8 inch port is for a boost gauge or water-methanol feed, so cap it if unused to keep debris out.
- Match the generation - use the 2007.5-2012, 2013-2019, or Cab and Chassis kit for your exact Cummins, because cooler shapes changed mid-run.
- Seal open connectors - cap the factory plugs the valve leaves behind, because exposed pins corrode and throw intermittent codes.
Off-Road Use Statement for Cummins EGR Delete
This collection contains EGR delete hardware built for the 6.7L, ISX, and X15 Cummins platforms. The 5.9L high-flow intake elbow EGR kit is a separate direct-replacement part that retains the factory EGR and is street-legal for on-road use; it is not a delete kit. For the delete hardware, removing or defeating emissions control devices is tampering under federal law, and the installer accepts that responsibility.
These kits and plug kits are intended for competition and closed-course off-road use only, and are not approved for street registration, inspection, or daily on-road driving.
An EGR delete must be paired with delete-capable tuning, because the ECM will set codes and cut power the moment it stops seeing the components that were removed. Not legal in California, Colorado, or Arizona, where fines can reach 32,500 dollars.
