no way to relocate it. you have to either delete it all or keep it.

they changed the cam slightly for 01/02, along with the LS6 intake...and were able to still make more power, without any increased emissions.

You could maybe gain a HP or two given the fact that the EGR tube goes through the intake and sits in the TB opening. There is a thread on here somewhere on how to modify the tube. Will it be a noticeable gain no not at all but then again every little bit counts somewhere.
