I figured those aftermarket EGR delete kits were just a waste of money.

A buddy in my shop kept pushing me to try one on my personal truck, a 2012 Duramax. I finally caved and spent about $400 on a kit from a local parts store. After the install, the truck actually ran smoother and my fuel mileage went up by almost 2 mpg on my regular commute to Spokane. Has anyone else had a good experience with a specific brand, or did I just get lucky?

Yeah that mileage bump is real, especially on those older trucks. Just gotta know the risk like holly_craig said. My old 6.7 Powerstroke ran way better after a delete, but I kept all the stock parts in a box. Had to swap it all back on in a weekend when I moved to a county that did testing. Total pain, but cheaper than a fine.

My cousin's delete kit worked great until his truck failed a surprise smog check.
