Ram Cummins 6.7L Throttle Valve Delete (Black) 2007.5-2021
The 6.7 Cummins throttle valve in a factory engine collaborates with the EGR system to circulate exhaust gas through the intake, reducing tailpipe emissions. However, for off-road performance diesel trucks, this can pose a significant risk!
A frequently overlooked aspect of a comprehensive EGR delete for most Cummins owners is the stock throttle valve. When the EGR system is in place, the stock Cummins throttle valve adjusts the balance between fresh intake air and recirculated exhaust gases by opening and closing. When fully or partially closed, the engine obtains the required air through the EGR system. However, when the EGR system is removed, there is no alternative air intake source when the throttle valve closes. To address this issue, the throttle valve operation is typically completely bypassed in EGR-less tunes, and the actuator remains disconnected. Occasionally, the throttle valve may inadvertently move to a fully or partially closed position, which can cut off air supply to your Cummins, potentially causing a loss of power, complete engine shutdown, or even severe damage at higher RPMs. Even when open and disconnected, the stock 6.7 Cummins throttle valve impedes smooth airflow through your intake. Don't risk relying on your old throttle valve to remain in place. Choose Tuner Depot's Throttle Valve Delete for 6.7L Cummins engines and add the perfect finishing touch to your EGR delete.
