6.7 Cummins EGR Delete Kit | Fitment, Options & Parts

Choosing the right 6.7 Cummins EGR delete kit starts with three things: your Ram’s model year, whether it is a standard pickup or Cab & Chassis truck, and which parts of the EGR system you plan to address.

The 6.7L Cummins has been used across multiple generations of Ram trucks, so EGR components and fitment are not identical across every model year. A kit designed for a 2007.5–2009 truck may not match a later 2013–2018 application, while Ram 3500/4500/5500 Cab & Chassis models can require a different configuration from standard pickups.

This guide explains the main fitment ranges, common kit types, and what to check before choosing a 6.7 Cummins EGR delete kit.


Quick Answer: Which 6.7 Cummins EGR Delete Kit Do I Need?

Start with your model year and truck configuration.

Model Years Truck Type Common Option
2007.5–2009 Ram pickup EGR delete kit
2010–2014 Ram 2500/3500 EGR & cooler kit
2013–2018 Ram 2500/3500 EGR + throttle kit
2010–2024/25 Ram pickup Full EGR kit
2013–2023 Cab & Chassis C&C-specific kit

The biggest mistake is choosing a kit based only on the 6.7L Cummins engine name. Always match the product to the exact year range and chassis configuration.


What Is a 6.7 Cummins EGR Delete Kit?

The factory Exhaust Gas Recirculation system routes a controlled amount of exhaust gas back into the engine's intake system as part of the truck's emissions-control strategy.

A 6.7 Cummins EGR delete kit is a collection of components intended to replace or block specific EGR-related hardware in off-road or competition applications.

Depending on the product, a kit may focus on:

  • EGR valve components

  • EGR cooler components

  • Throttle valve components

  • Coolant-routing components

  • Block-off plates and related hardware

Not every kit includes the same parts, which is why terms such as EGR delete, EGR cooler delete, and EGR throttle valve delete should not automatically be treated as interchangeable.


6.7 Cummins EGR Delete Kit Fitment by Year

2007.5–2009 6.7 Cummins

The 2007.5 model year introduced the 6.7L Cummins into Dodge Ram heavy-duty trucks. These early trucks have their own EGR configuration, so buyers should use a kit designed specifically for this generation.

For this application, see the:

2007.5–2009 6.7 Cummins EGR Delete Kit

This is the most appropriate starting point if you own an early 6.7L Cummins Ram rather than trying to adapt a later 2010+ kit.

Best for:

  • 2007.5–2009 6.7L Cummins

  • Early Dodge Ram applications

  • Buyers looking for generation-specific EGR components

Always confirm your truck's production year before ordering, especially around the 2007 model-year transition.


2010–2014 6.7 Cummins

For 2010–2014 Ram trucks, a dedicated EGR and cooler configuration is available.

See the:

2010–2014 6.7 Cummins EGR & Cooler Delete Kit

This option is useful for owners who specifically want a kit matched to the earlier 2010–2014 configuration rather than a broader multi-year kit.

Best for:

  • 2010–2014 Ram 2500

  • 2010–2014 Ram 3500

  • Year-specific EGR and cooler applications

When comparing kits, check exactly which plates, pipes, gaskets, fittings, and related components are included.


2013–2018 EGR & Throttle Valve Option

The 2013–2018 generation has another important consideration: the throttle valve assembly.

For owners who want a combined configuration, DieselPerf offers the:

2013–2018 6.7 Cummins EGR & Throttle Valve Delete Kit

Instead of focusing only on EGR cooler components, this configuration combines EGR-related components with a throttle valve replacement component.

Best for:

  • 2013–2018 Ram 2500

  • 2013–2018 Ram 3500

  • Buyers wanting EGR and throttle components together

This can be a more convenient choice than purchasing separate components if both systems are part of the planned off-road build.


2010–2024/2025 6.7 Cummins EGR Kit Options

Owners of later Ram trucks can also choose from broader multi-year kits.

Two options to compare are:

6.7 Cummins EGR Delete Kit for Ram 2010–2025

and

6.7 Cummins EGR Delete Kit for Dodge Ram 2010–2024

These broader-fitment products are useful when shopping across later 6.7 Cummins generations, but do not assume every component is identical simply because the year ranges overlap.

Compare:

  • Exact model year

  • Pickup vs. Cab & Chassis

  • Included components

  • EGR cooler configuration

  • Throttle valve components

  • Sensor or probe provisions

  • Hardware included

If two kits fit the same model year, use the product specifications and included-parts list to decide which configuration matches your build.


2013–2023 Cab & Chassis 6.7 Cummins

Cab & Chassis fitment deserves special attention.

Ram 3500, 4500, and 5500 commercial chassis applications can differ from standard pickup configurations.

If you have a Cab & Chassis truck, start with the dedicated:

2013–2023 6.7 Cummins Cab & Chassis EGR Delete Kit

This product category is specifically designed around Cab & Chassis applications rather than standard pickups.

Configuration Typical Models What to Choose
Pickup 2500/3500 Pickup kit
Cab & Chassis 3500/4500/5500 C&C kit

Do not choose solely by model year. A 3500 pickup and a 3500 Cab & Chassis can require different parts.


EGR Delete vs. EGR Cooler Delete vs. Throttle Valve Delete

One of the most common sources of confusion is the terminology used in product names.

EGR Delete Kit

A general EGR delete kit normally addresses components associated with the truck's exhaust gas recirculation system.

The exact parts vary by kit and model year.

EGR Cooler Delete Kit

An EGR cooler delete kit focuses on components around the EGR cooler system.

A year-specific example is the:

2010–2014 Cummins EGR Cooler Delete Kit

EGR & Throttle Valve Delete Kit

This type combines EGR-related parts with components that replace the factory throttle valve section.

For 2013–2018 trucks, see the:

2013–2018 Cummins EGR & Throttle Valve Kit

Throttle Valve Delete Only

If the EGR system itself is not the component you are shopping for, a throttle-valve-specific product may be the better match.

See the:

2007.5–2024 6.7 Cummins EGR Throttle Valve Delete Kit

This distinction matters because a throttle valve delete component should not automatically be treated as a complete EGR cooler delete kit.


Quick Comparison of 6.7 Cummins EGR Kit Types

Kit Type Main Focus Best When
EGR Kit EGR system General EGR build
Cooler Kit EGR cooler Cooler-specific setup
EGR + Throttle Both areas Combined setup
Throttle Kit Throttle valve Intake-side part
C&C Kit Commercial chassis 3500/4500/5500 C&C

This simple distinction can make product selection much easier.


What Parts Are Usually Included?

The exact contents depend on the kit, but many 6.7 Cummins EGR delete kits may include a combination of:

  • Block-off plates

  • Delete pipes or tubes

  • Coolant-related fittings

  • Gaskets

  • Bolts

  • Brackets

  • Hose components

  • Throttle valve replacement components

Always use the product page's What's Included or product-image section as the final reference.

Two kits that both say "6.7 Cummins EGR delete kit" can include very different components.


How to Choose the Right Kit

Instead of buying based on the product photo alone, use this sequence.

1. Confirm the Engine

Verify that the truck is equipped with the 6.7L Cummins Turbo Diesel.

2. Confirm the Exact Model Year

Pay attention to ranges such as:

  • 2007.5–2009

  • 2010–2014

  • 2013–2018

  • 2019+

The mid-year 2007.5 designation matters when shopping for early 6.7 Cummins parts.

3. Identify the Truck Configuration

Determine whether the truck is:

  • A standard Ram pickup

  • A Ram Cab & Chassis

This is particularly important for 3500 applications.

4. Decide Which Components You Need

Determine whether you are looking for:

  • EGR components only

  • EGR cooler components

  • EGR + throttle valve components

  • Throttle valve components only

5. Compare What's Included

Do not assume two similarly named products contain the same hardware.

Check the individual product page before ordering.


Which Kit Should I Choose by Application?

Here is a faster way to narrow down your options.

I Have a 2007.5–2009 Ram

Start with the dedicated 2007.5–2009 EGR Delete Kit.

A generation-specific kit is preferable to assuming a later 2010+ configuration will work.

I Have a 2010–2014 Ram

Compare the dedicated 2010–2014 EGR & Cooler Delete Kit with the broader 2010+ kits.

The best choice depends on which components your build requires.

I Have a 2013–2018 Ram

If you want both EGR and throttle-valve-related components, consider the 2013–2018 EGR & Throttle Valve Delete Kit.

I Have a Later-Model Ram

Compare the broader 2010–2025 EGR Delete Kit and 2010–2024 EGR Delete Kit.

Verify the exact year shown on the current product page before purchase.

I Have a Cab & Chassis Truck

Use the dedicated 2013–2023 Cab & Chassis EGR Delete Kit rather than assuming a standard pickup kit will fit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best 6.7 Cummins EGR delete kit?

There is no single kit that is best for every 6.7L Cummins. The right kit depends primarily on the truck's model year, pickup vs. Cab & Chassis configuration, and whether you need EGR cooler, throttle valve, or combined components.

What years use the 6.7 Cummins EGR system?

The 6.7L Cummins appeared in Ram heavy-duty trucks beginning with the 2007.5 model year. EGR-related components and configurations changed across later truck generations, so year-specific fitment matters.

Will a 2013–2018 EGR kit fit a 2010 Ram?

Do not assume it will. Products listed specifically for 2013–2018 applications can use different components from kits designed for 2010–2014 trucks. Choose the product matching the exact year.

Is an EGR throttle valve delete the same as a complete EGR delete kit?

No. A throttle valve delete focuses on the throttle valve section. A complete EGR kit may include additional plates, cooler-related components, fittings, hoses, or hardware.

Do Ram Cab & Chassis trucks use the same EGR kit as pickups?

Not necessarily. Cab & Chassis applications can require dedicated parts. DieselPerf offers a 2013–2023 Cab & Chassis-specific kit for applicable Ram commercial trucks.

How do I know if my Ram is Cab & Chassis?

Cab & Chassis trucks are commercial chassis configurations supplied without a conventional factory pickup bed and are commonly used for flatbeds, service bodies, utility bodies, and similar applications. If you are unsure, verify your truck configuration before ordering.

What is the difference between an EGR delete and EGR cooler delete?

"EGR delete" is a broader term for modifying EGR-system components, while an EGR cooler delete specifically addresses the cooler section. Product contents vary, so always review what is included.

Can I buy only a throttle valve delete for a 6.7 Cummins?

Yes. DieselPerf offers a 2007.5–2024 6.7 Cummins EGR Throttle Valve Delete Kit for buyers shopping specifically for that component.


Final Thoughts

The most important rule when shopping for a 6.7 Cummins EGR delete kit is simple: fitment first, kit type second.

Start with your exact model year, then determine whether you have a standard pickup or Cab & Chassis truck. After that, decide whether your build calls for an EGR kit, EGR cooler kit, throttle valve component, or a combined EGR and throttle valve configuration.

For early trucks, the 2007.5–2009 Cummins EGR Delete Kit provides a generation-specific option. For 2010–2014 trucks, consider the EGR & Cooler Delete Kit. Owners of 2013–2018 pickups can compare the EGR & Throttle Valve Delete Kit, while commercial truck owners should review the dedicated 2013–2023 Cab & Chassis Kit.

Matching the correct kit to the truck before ordering is the simplest way to avoid unnecessary fitment problems.

Off-road and competition use only where permitted. Verify current product fitment and applicable regulations before purchase or installation.
