Some people do a bypass on it but you don't have to.From what i understand it doesn't help WOT performance any...If i'm wrong please say so cause if it does help WOT then i'm all for it!!!!!

i guess what im asking is what is it and do i have it stock? if so then i need to get a compatiable header and if i dont have it on my manifolds then i can just forget about it right?

I believe it sends exhaust emissions back through your system or some ****...blahblah...
Yes i think they all ahve it stock.Is it a must have...no is it a must do mod???No.
Somebody help me here i think i'mm drowning!!!!!!
I did a search on this a while back but i forget all the crap it said...i searched over on ls1 though....

I had EGR on mine too, the stock exhaust manifolds will have a hook-up for it. if you get pacesetters they will have a hook up as well. I had mine turned off in the tune. it doesnt really help or hurt performance any at all. I was just told by a bunch of people that since the purpose of EGR is to recirclate exhaust gasses back into the intake manifold that it would keep the intake cleaner etc etc... so I did it. The headers came with a blank off plate for the EGR mount. its not a big deal either way. Just personal pref I guess.

good deal, cuz i used to think that edelbroch shorty's were good headers and all and was trying to decide about the EGR thing but then i forgot about those since LT's are clearly better...i guess i'd just buy the 2wd pacesetters and ORy and make them work with whatever they came with
