Remember that the ECU tune still gives you performance and the other option to get this would be a chip, which will cost you similar but not handle the EGR control function. Worth noting that ECUTek will only include EGR management by request - otherwise it is not enabled and you'll need Tony's mod or the Hope I Get The Right Value Resistor mod.
All our tunes include a custom mapped EGR tune to give BEST economy and cold start as well as ZERO smoke / soot contamination.
Brett, I think we need to keep things in context here. Your direct quote of my post would appear to indicate that I was saying that you do not manage EGR at all, unless specifically requested. However that does change when considered in the context of the post to which I was replying:

Now, in this context I think it becomes clear that I was not implying that you don't manage the EGR. Rather, I was saying to Dunney that your process would not stop the EGR from operating at all. It has been my understanding for some time that you modify the EGR behaviour, but do not disable it altogether, although that can be done, by specific customer request.
Your response seems to circumvent the issue somewhat. Perhaps you'd like to confirm that my understanding was correct, or deny if applicable, with an explanation so that we can all be clear on what you actually do.
This is because the AIT mod does not mess with the manifold pressures such as a full blanking plate. The blank, they can find very easily as MUT3 sees the negative pressures.
