Rudy's up pipes

1tonpower · Aug 21, 2013

My egr pipe is blown at the flex joint. I've deleted the coolers already so the pipe is useless to me. I've seen the stainless up pipes with out the EGR cooler provision..Who makes these pipes with out it, I've google searched already and saw them somewhere, but I can't fin them again.

Dark Horse Diesel makes them. They are a great product made out of new pipes. They don't make them out of used stock stuff. They have held up perfectly so far.

You'll want the pipe with that tho if you ever want to run a wastgate in the future

^^ what he said. I'd still get them with the provision.

Will@Rudy'sDiesel · Aug 22, 2013

That's why we have it.

Do you think there are any flow differences between the up pipes with the egr provision and without it? I have Rudy's up pipes with the egr provision.

The stock EGR pipe is cracked at the flex.. I don't see any reason in replacing a pipe that isn't needed. I think the lack of support the egr pipe has after the coolers are deleted had more to do with this then anything else.

Not unless you need to buy new ones. If you have no need or desire to ever waste gate, then don't get the provision. The gates ties into the up pipe where the egr cooler normally would be.

I don't think that it would have a big effect unless you are trying to squeeze every little piece of hp out of the truck like were talking .5 hp but honestly I don't think that it would make a difference.

If just the EGR flex joint is bad why change the up pipes.
Just cut the EGR pipe at the bottom bend then at the top and pull it out.
Drill and tap your EGR cooler block off plate and bolt on at up top. Screw in the EBP pipe and sensor. Have fun though that pipe is a huge PIA to do with the cab on.

I just did mine and up pipes with the cab on, I second the PIA with the cab on

i was looking at that last night. i wasnt sure if it was the same size on both ends.

If your talking about the block off plate, yes it is. Drill and tap it. Remove or buy a new fitting for the EBP Tube. I jus removed the one from the EGR pipe.
