no point in keeping the EGR unless you need it to pass emissions


If you are hell bent on keeping it, buy the SLP intake that is already drilled for it. Unless you are wanting to take a chance of jacking up a intake you just paid $325 for(if you get a regular LS6 intake)

Another thought is that since FAST 90/92mm intakes are obsolete, you could probably pick one up for a decent price.

from a quick search, it looks like people are saying the 90/92 manifolds are not being made anymore and are becoming hard to find new. not necessarily that they're technologically obsolete.
