EGR delete

Worth it?

I've been doing a bit of research on them lately, and can't make my mind up whether it'd be worth getting.

I'm after getting a map from Awesome GTi in the next month or two, and when I do get the map my thoughts were to get the 'EML' or whatever it's referred to on this forum as, mapped out.

Is it worth the £60 or whatever it is from Allard?

Opinions are appreciated :)

If you're getting a map sorted afterwards then yes it probably is, as you'll be able to get rid of the engine management light :)

Not too sure what gains you get but it does stop warm air going back into the intercooler which must have a benefit........... i fitted mine purely cause my egr cooler exploded lol

I'd say its worth it! when I fitted mine the amount of black crap on the manifold and EGR valve was quite something :o so to know that I only have clean air entering my engine is reassuring! TBH I still haven't had my CEL light mapped out as I decided to wait till I can fit an exhaust so I don't waste a custom map, I just give it a quick VAG com scan now and then to make sure there's nothing moody going on.

I also did the 'Elephant hose' mod at the same time, there's tonnes of info on here about it.

All the best, John
