Hi,
I know this is not directly related to Orbit, but since someone here might have knowledge about this, I decided to ask anyway.
Does anyone know about disabling the EGR? Is it possible to do it with software? What about simply blocking it off at both ends?
As I understand it, the EGR system has two sensors, one before and one after the EGR valve, which only monitor how much exhaust gas flows through the EGR valve. If the EGR were blocked before this point (where it branches off from the exhaust) and also blocked at the other end near the intake manifold, would this be sufficient? In that case, would it be unnecessary to disable the EGR via software as well?
I’m aware of the difficulties caused by this newer engine control module (ECM). As far as I know, there currently isn’t anyone in the world who can create engine tuning/optimization software for these cars. Isn’t that correct?
