What is EGR

[05Quadrasteer]

Okay, I can't seem to find the answer to this. What does EGR stand for? I am about to put headers on my truck and it mentions it once about if EGR is used where to put it in at. Want to be able to look it up in my Helm's manuals but they don't show the EGR acronym.

 

Also would you all suggest I just replace the EGR or use the one currently in use.

 

You can see below what my truck is.

 

Thanks for the help and have a nice day.

Exhaust gas is for sure and I think the R is recirulation.

EGR = Exhaust Gas Recirculation.

Thanks for the answers guys. Now I have a follow up question. I am about to put on a set of Dynatech Supermaxx headers. Would it be helpful to replace the EGR or just use the old one?

 

Have a nice day.
