TruckTok 2010-2024 6.7L Cummins Dodge Ram EGR Throttle Valve Cooler Delete Kit

FITMENT

• 2010–2024 6.7L Dodge Ram Cummins  2500 / 3500 Pickup Turbo Diesel.
  
• Note: Does NOT fit Chassis Cab 3500 / 4500 / 5500 models.

DESCRIPTION

Product Overview

• The factory 6.7L Cummins recirculates hot, soot-heavy exhaust back into your intake while restricting fresh air via a redundant throttle butterfly valve.
  
• Over time, this causes severe carbon sludge buildup, clogged intake valves, and internal EGR cooler leaks that lead to sudden coolant loss and potential hydro-lock.
• This all-in-one delete kit physically replaces the entire EGR and throttle valve system with high-flow CNC-machined components. It permanently stops soot contamination, eliminates cooler leak risks, and removes the main airflow bottleneck at the intake.

Key Features

• Pre-Tapped EGT Port: Features a 1/8" NPT port on the exhaust plate for fast, direct installation of an aftermarket EGT sensor probe.
• Heavy-Duty Coolant Reroute: Includes a reinforced coolant bypass hose to maintain smooth, uninterrupted coolant circulation through the block without hot spots.
• Prevents Carbon & Oil Contamination: Stops sticky carbon sludge from choking intake ports and fouling engine oil, extending long-term engine life.

FAQ

Q: What are the benefits of adding a Throttle Valve Delete Tube?

A: Deleting both components stops soot from contaminating your oil and intake, replaces the restrictive butterfly valve with a straight-through tube for faster turbo response, and eliminates cooler leak risks to keep operating temperatures lower.

Q: Does this kit require bleeding the cooling system after installation?

A: Yes. Since installing the coolant bypass hose involves opening the factory coolant circuit, you must refill the coolant and properly bleed air pockets out of the system to prevent localized engine hot spots.

Q: What performance benefits do I get by pairing the EGR Delete with the 3.5" Intake Horn?

A: While the EGR Delete stops hot soot and coolant leaks, adding the 3.5" Intake Horn boosts airflow by up to 50%. Together, they eliminate turbo lag, sharpen throttle response, and drop towing EGTs by an extra 50–200°F.

Q: Does removing the EGR cooler affect engine cooling or create hot spots?

A: No. All kits include a heavy-duty coolant bypass hose that safely re-routes coolant around where the original EGR cooler sat. This maintains continuous, proper coolant flow through the engine block without creating localized hot spots.
