    Your motor will thank you for it in the long run. You will not be in shop at 8,000 miles getting a replacement one or wait they are on backorder again. I called & the gm mechanic & he told me I would be stupid not to put on in. They can not keep them on the shelfs. I also put in a finger stick in to avoid the codes. That was before hptuners. I would just disable the dtc's & turn off the egr for sure. You should put the blocker plate in also because the egr can still get forced open with enough pressure. You will have a clean motor & it will breath better. You might see just a slight mileage increase & less smoke. I hope that helped.
