Each component is supplied to allow for the physical removal of the EGR pathway and the secure sealing of all openings, preventing exhaust gases from re-entering the intake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterial and Build\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core component is a pre-formed aluminium EGR removal tube, which weighs 350 grams. This pipe replaces the stock EGR connection. Accompanying this tube are two aluminium EGR stopper plates and two aluminium EGR cooler blind plates. These plates are designed to seal off the mounting points on the EGR valve and the EGR cooler respectively. The hardware kit includes two steel blank bolts with integrated locking washers to ensure a secure, vibration-resistant fit when attaching the blocking plates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize and Practical Fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EGR removal tube is manufactured to match the specific routing and connection points of the BMW E46 diesel engine bay. Its 350-gram weight indicates a solid aluminium construction. The plates are sized to cover the standard EGR valve and cooler flanges accurately. The inclusion of two cable ties assists with managing and securing any loose vacuum lines after the EGR system is removed, contributing to a tidy and professional installation finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUses and Placement\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"BMW E46 EGR delete kit showing aluminium pipe, blocking plates, bolts, and vacuum plug\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US12\/1253\/2025-10-02\/original-image\/63524dfa-cd84-4df1-820b-479d2fd8d20c.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit is intended for use in automotive modification and maintenance scenarios where the factory EGR system is being intentionally disabled.
