Im in the process of installing my mac ceramic coated headers and might have run into a problem. I see where the EGR thing is hooked to the intake and is connected to the header by a steel tube. Well on the stock headers it behind the third tube but on my mac headers there is a thread plug behind my second tube!!! Anybody ever installed them??? Any help would be appreciated!

I have the mac equal lengths and you have to force it on there. When putting on the egr, tight the nut that holds the tube to the headers down to the point where you can still twist the tube and then mount the valve to the intake. Then tighten both sides of the tube up. It's a little hard, but it works.

Thanks Trublue, I called their technical dept. and talked to somebody and he said to twist the tube around since it has a bend to it, so we'll see what happens, either way I'll get it on there!
