The LS6 intake does not have a provision for an EGR while the LS1 did. An LS6 with a EGR hook-up would be an aftermarket modification.

I'm not sure what car you have, but what I've read in a few places is that the LS1's (2000 and older), had LS1 intakes. The 2001's and 2002's come with the LS6 intake.
