Advantages of fitting an EGR plug

• Reduced contamination in the intake – no backflow of exhaust gases means a cleaner intake manifold, with less carbon build-up and deposits.
• More stable engine operation – less idling fluctuation, better throttle response.
• Improved performance and dynamics – the absence of hot exhaust gases in the intake improves the quality of the air-fuel mixture and combustion efficiency.
• Lower risk of EGR faults – elimination of the source of failure (stuck valve, faulty actuator, control unit errors).
• Reduced exhaust smoke – in many cases, combustion becomes more complete.
• Extended engine oil life – less soot entering the oil via blow-by.
• Potential reduction in fuel consumption – in some engines.
• Lower intake temperatures – which may have a beneficial effect on the turbocharger and intercooler.

Technical specifications

• plug material: acid-resistant steel, 
• all plugs undergo specialist vibratory finishing. This process removes sharp edges and smooths the surface
• Gasket material: GAMBIT AF-1000 – a material with particularly high strength properties, resistant to all conditions encountered in the exhaust system
• Note: Plugging the valve may cause a warning light to come on on the dashboard. In this case, the EGR valve must be deactivated via the vehicle’s software.
