When I deleted my EGR I just traced the shape of the EGR mount onto a piece of 1/4" aluminum plate. Fabbed and drilled my own, and reused the EGR-to-head seal. Then cut my EGR tube off about 2" out from the intake manifold and capped it with a ½" PCV plumbing cap from any hardware store. The $0.98 EGR delete.

Billet Technology EGR Block Off Plate (for 5.7L Hemi's only)

I firmly believe in form and function, it'd kill me to have a visible piece of tubing capped in the engine bay, but I realize that's just me. Now, if you have an emissions visual inspection they will notice a capped piece of tubing, but they tend not to notice something that is barely noticable like the plug on the manifold.

The big problem is once the EGR is deleted it will throw a code and now it can only be turned off by a CMR and a custom tune unless you have a DS predator with 9r11 or earlier software, a newer programmer won't be able to delete the EGR on its own.

I went to the link you posted, I discovered it requires a Diablo tuner to turn off the EGR function, or you get a check engine light. Is there any other way to disable the EGR system, so the check engine light stays off? Anyone????

You need to seal off the oem pcv valve with rtf then drill out the passenger side valve cover and install an external pcv valve, the one from a 4.8L vortech will work. Once that's done, install catch can and hoses.
