LB7 EGR Delete What’s the Best Approach?

[hibunec]

Hello everyone.

I’m considering an EGR delete on my LB7 vehicle and would like some advice from others who have already completed one. I’m mainly interested in reliability, drivability, and whether there are any noticeable changes after removing the EGR system.

Are there specific parts or kits that are recommended, or is it better to source everything individually?

I’d also like to know if there are any common problems during installation or afterward.

For those who have done an LB7 EGR delete, how did the car behave afterward, and is there anything you wish you had known before starting the job?

As you're obviously not talking about the 6.6L LB7 Duramax diesel truck engine, what does "LB7" mean in your BMW Z context?

what is a LB7?

i have EGR delete on my diesel truck, but its a cable that doesnt block it off, it sends a signal to the EGR making it think the engine is cold, so it never opens the EGR but allows all other normal operations to carry on, like regeneration cycle and such. In my older Diesel trucks ( ford rangers) i have used a metal plate to physically block it, and worked perfectly with no issues over thousands of miles.

not sure any of this is what your asking for or wanted though??
