t4 up pipes with "factory" egr cooler.

slc6oh · Dec 30, 2015

come spring im going with a t4 setup. my factory egr cooler is currently ummmm, COUGH welded shut COUGH...

don't need anyone's lectures. but my state requires diesel emissions in my county and has to pass a visual inspection. Just makes life a lot easier come emissions time , and not having to "tip" anyone to ignore that is nice.

But as for the t4 up pipes go, as long as I have the bolt through the intake manifold into the egr cooler, and everything else how it should be .

does anyone see any reason not having the rear exhaust connection to the up pipe would cause any beef? assuming all is water/exhaust tight of course.

or maybe I weld a dummy flange to the new up pipe?

anyone done anything like this?

Most emissions guys dont have a clue what they are looking at. My cooler is the same as yours, but i have a buddy with a full ******, with the egr valve still on. Emissions doesnt notice no cooler or changed up pipe.

I agree, I know im giving em lots of credit, suckers buried in there, but Just my Luck kinda think ya know?

my last little toy was a twinned 98 mustang, and as long as they could plug into it, and nothing failed on the electronic side of things I was good to go, I had an in at the time
though so the fact that it didn't have cats, or egr, or evap was getting ignored.

Theres a few company's out there that build t4 up pipes with egr provision so you can run a cooler for emissions purposes

I talked to Matt at cutting edge about that once and he said he could weld on the piece just so you could clamp it down
