    So would installing a new header/downpipe delete the egr? What else is needed?

    You'll need egr block off plates. You can easily make your own. You need one where the egr goes into the LIM and one where it is on the exhaust.

    use the tabs that are on the EGR tubes. cut them off, fill holes with anything of your choosing, bolt back onto the LIM/rear header.

    Block holes off with two pennies and RTV them to the LIM/header bracket.

    Let them dry, bolt them back on...done and done.

    Here's what I did.

    Just cut the stock flange off the EGR.


    Cut a piece out of a chunk of stainless pipe and shaped it to fit the opening.




    And welded it up.


    I also installed it with some RTV because I don't think it will seal if you don't.

    And if I just put the new exhaust on and don't do that I'll be throwing codes I presume?

    I just got a code last night after over a year of delete:

    P1404 - Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Closed Position Performance
    P0404 - Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Open Position Performance
    P1404 - and egr pintel performance

    Any suggestions on why this code was thrown out of nowhere?!

    If you are the tuner or whoever the tuner is, take a look at the tune and figure out why they all came on.

    Make sure you/they turned the codes off the correct way. Also double check the wires and make sure they didnt get melted or grounded onto something.
