2010-2024 6.7L Dodge Ram Cummins EGR & Cooler Delete Kit
Maximize the reliability and efficiency of your 6.7L Cummins Diesel with our comprehensive EGR & Cooler Delete Kit . Designed specifically for 2010–2024 RAM 2500HD and 3500HD trucks, this kit is the ultimate solution for eliminating the recirculation of hot, soot-heavy exhaust gases into your intake manifold.
By bypassing the factory Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system, you prevent carbon buildup, reduce engine operating temperatures, and unlock the performance potential your Cummins was built for.
Key Performance Benefits
-
Enhanced Engine Longevity: Prevents abrasive soot and carbon from entering the combustion chamber, protecting your cylinders and oil quality.
-
Lower Operating Temperatures: By removing the EGR cooler, coolant no longer absorbs extreme exhaust heat, allowing your engine to run significantly cooler.
-
Improved Fuel Economy: Experience up to 20% gains in MPG by allowing the engine to breathe clean, fresh air instead of recycled exhaust.
-
Tapped for EGT Probe: The exhaust manifold plates come pre-tapped, making it easy to install an Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) probe to monitor performance.
-
Complete Recirculation Fix: Includes a specialized coolant re-route hose to ensure proper flow without blocked-off lines.
Detailed Vehicle Fitment Guide
This kit is a direct-fit replacement for the following 6.7L Cummins Turbo Diesel models:
Pro Tip on EGT Probes: Please note that the EGT sensor requirements differ between the 2013-2018 and 2019+ RAM models. Our manifold plates are designed to accommodate these variations for a professional-grade setup.

Why Choose This 6.7 Cummins EGR Delete?
Factory EGR valves and coolers are notorious for clogging, leading to reduced power, "limp mode," and expensive repairs. This kit completely replaces the EGR & Cooler Delete Kit, requiring no additional parts for a clean installation. It keeps your intake air cool and your engine oil cleaner for longer intervals, making it an essential upgrade for any off-road or race-spec Cummins build.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Does this kit include a coolant re-route?
A: Yes. Unlike cheaper kits that block off hoses, ours includes a dedicated re-route hose to maintain consistent coolant pressure and flow.
Q: Will I need a tuner to install this?
A: Yes. Removing the EGR system requires a performance tuner to prevent Check Engine Lights (CEL) and ensure the engine calibrates correctly.
Q: Can I monitor my exhaust temps with this kit?
A: Absolutely. The manifold block-off plate is pre-tapped specifically for an EGT probe, allowing for real-time monitoring of your engine's vitals.
Performance & Engine Reliability
Q1: What are the key benefits of installing an EGR delete kit?
- Engine Longevity: Stops abrasive soot from entering the intake, preventing carbon "caking" on the grid heater and intake valves.
- Lower Operating Temps: Since hot exhaust gas is no longer recirculated, your overall coolant and engine temperatures remain more stable.
- Improved Efficiency: Many owners report an MPG boost of up to 20% and significantly sharper throttle response.
- Reliability: Eliminates the risk of a cracked EGR cooler—a primary cause of mystery coolant loss and "white smoke" in Cummins engines.
Q2: How does the throttle body delete improve performance?
- The factory throttle body (butterfly valve) creates a major airflow restriction. Deleting it allows for maximum fresh air volume to reach the cylinders, resulting in faster turbo spool-up and enhanced mid-range torque.
Q3: Will this kit help extend my engine's life?
- Yes. By reducing internal carbon buildup and lowering thermal stress on the engine's cooling and intake systems, the kit helps extend the overall service life of your 6.7L Cummins.
Q4: Can this kit solve the "Grid Heater Bolt" failure issue?
- No. This kit focuses on the EGR and intake airflow systems. If you are concerned about the "fatal bolt" dropping into the engine from the factory grid heater, you should look into a dedicated Grid Heater Delete or a "Wiggle Wire" replacement.
Technical Fitment & Installation
Q5: Is this kit compatible with my specific Ram model?
- This kit is precision-engineered for 2010–2025 Ram 2500 and 3500 models equipped with the 6.7L Cummins.
- Note: This kit is NOT compatible with Cab & Chassis (C&C) models.
Q6: What makes this EGR delete kit unique?
- Our kit features CNC-machined billet aluminum with a high-polish finish and exclusive engraving. It includes an integrated DDC base pipe bracket that eliminates the need for exhaust studs, making the installation faster, more secure, and visually superior in your engine bay.
Q7: Does it include a mounting location for the transmission dipstick?
- Yes. We have integrated a secure mounting point specifically for the factory transmission dipstick tube to maintain a clean and organized engine bay.
Q8: How long does the installation take?
- A professional or experienced DIY installation typically takes 4–6 hours. The kit is designed as a direct-fit solution and includes all necessary gaskets, hardware, and instructions.
Tuning & Legality
Q9: Do I need to tune my truck after removing the EGR system?
- Yes, absolutely. You cannot run an EGR delete on a 6.7L Cummins without an "EGR-Off" tune (such as EFI Live or EZ Lynk). Without proper tuning, the truck will immediately enter "Limp Mode" and trigger a Check Engine Light (CEL).
Q10: Is removing the EGR valve legal for road use?
- No. OFF-ROAD / RACE USE ONLY. Removing emissions control equipment violates U.S. EPA federal regulations and most state laws for vehicles operated on public highways. This kit is intended for competition, pulls, or dedicated off-road builds.
Q11: Will installing this kit void my vehicle’s warranty?
- Yes. Modifying the emissions system is almost certain to void your factory powertrain warranty. We recommend consulting with a diesel-friendly shop or waiting until your warranty period has expired.
Troubleshooting & Support
Q12: What is included in the full kit?
- The comprehensive kit includes: EGR block-off plates, throttle body delete components, a cooling bypass plate, all required gaskets, high-strength hardware, and a transmission dipstick mounting bracket.
Q13: Is there a solution that works with the factory probe?
- Yes. This kit is designed to be fully compatible with the factory sensors/probes to ensure a seamless integration with your tuning software.
