It was pretty much a matter of necessity with the installation of my Whipple and Fore fuel rails. Initially, I installed everything without the EGR delete and there was no room at the rear of the blower for the fuel lines. So, I had to run a front "crossover" fuel line. I hated the look of the line and it rubbed against the hood when it was down. So, I did the EGR delete and was able to use a "Y" block and attach the fuel lines to the rear of the fuel rails.
The added "bonus" is that the EGR delete gets rid of the hornets nest next to the supercharger:

I believe the only con with deleting the EGR is you probably won't pass emissions testing, if you have it where you live...

Nah, we don't have any of that here.. What in all is removed?.. I thought the boost bypass and everything still stays?..
The boost bypass is not removed. Please check out this thread for details on the EGR delete:

I thought it was proven that the IAT2's were hotter when cruising after an EGR delete. During WOT runs it doesn't matter because the valve is closed anyhow. I also was under the impression that fuel mileage decreased?
My iats went down not much mind you but down none the less.
What testing did you do?
Well, i have had the eaton set up, the 2.3l whipple set up, and now the 3.4l whipple set up. I have a ton of datalogs for the 2.3l whipple, did the swap then and had many datalogs after that. When i took the 2.3l off when i did the delete, i noticed a bunch of varnish/ thick black almost sludge. I cleaned the blower out like new and did the delete. I think being clean of stuff and the delete i think it ran better. It could have been the sludge stuff/varnish, but doing the delete/good cleaning helped never the less.
Another good delete was the pcv system. No more oil in the blower too.
"The added "bonus" is that the EGR delete gets rid of the hornets nest next to the supercharger"
I AGREE

What did you all do with the plugs that are left on the harness from the delete?
hahaha
Did mine a while back,no ill effects that i know of.Makes it so much cleaner looking.
But.,., you could get the same benefits of removing the system, and just move the rats nest :shrug:
I still like this better :-D Relocating the stuff that is bolted to the side of the blower. - SVTPerformance
please forgive the blur
