Default ls6 egr to non-egr manifold ?'s...

is there any other way to add egr to a non-egr ls6 manifold? i know there's a manifold with egr from SLP but i'm not paying $500+ for one. i've also heard there is a kit available from either lingenfelter or SDPC but i cannot find it anywhere. anyone who can point me in the right direction will automatically become awesome.

just drill and tap the holes were the bolts should go. and cut that lil part out were the egr goes into the manifold.

Why keep the egr? Toss it out and get a tune.

i would LOVE to, but here in this police state known as ontario, they hate any car that's not a douchebag hybrid. if i ever get pulled over and they notice i don't have any of my emissions equipment, i'm up the creek.

I always thought that if I ever needed to put it back on for visual inspection I would just run the tube from the EGR valve to the LS6 mani, drill and tap for the bolt to hold the clamp and clamp the tube to the manifold without actually drilling the big hole for the tube to go thru. They'd never be able to tell it's not functional because the clamp would hide the end of the tube where it touches the manifold.

Along the same lines, I've thought that you could probably cut the tube fitting out of the LS1 manifold, glue it to the top of the LS6, cut the EGR tube and bolt it down.
