    75mm lightning EGR too big?

    is 75mm too big to fit on the explorer upper? I found one on the lightning forums.

    Yeah, that's a tad too big. Even if it did fit, it's too big.

      75mm???????? Must be hogged out then? The opening on the intake is 10mm smaller (approx) than that, so you'd have a pretty big "lip", which would definitely cause some reversion around th TB area and possibly cause idle issues. It would also impede flow.

        It's probably a mustang one anyway. I do not think anyone made a aftermarket TB for the 93-95 lightning.

          I was thinking the same thing which is why I'm thinking if it IS an L EGR, it would need to be hogged out to be that large.
