What is the results of deleting the egr? Is their any tunes out that are pragrammed with this mod being done? Coming from a stock LB7 my LLY is a letdown in the bottom end torque and mileage areas.

EGR does not operate at WOT, so disabling it won't give you what you're looking for.

You need a tuner. The off-the-line response improves quite a bit.

If you want to make your LLY run like an LB7 you will have to Predator it!

Thanks Brutis, that was quite a read! It would be nice to hear some runability updates from some of those that used block off plates.

The predator is a good programmer and give it a while seems to settle in after about a week. My tranny really is starting to tighten up. The edge box had huge defuels on gear changes

FYI you can turn off the defuel on the edge. I have heard many people complain about the defuel on the predator. A good option appears to be using the Edge/*** at a low level with defuel off and the predator on a 65hp tune. I am waiting for my predator to see what works best.
