I think you can use some orileys brand break cleaner if you want to go the cheap way out, should work just fine

Once all the grease is gone and its completely clean it dry's in seconds. Just evaporates in no time. The aerosol type cleaner does anyway

tons of write ups at SVTPerformance

just buy a box of brake cleaner from autozone. youll end up using most all of it.

i actually was thinking of doing that. but didnt quite know how. read a couple of reviews over it but havent got a chance to do it yet.. do u have a how to on it?

[ADale13]

you have to tune right after taking it off.

[L8 APEX]

block the vacuum line on top of the EGR valve and turn it off in the tune. or you can get pretty fancy caps.
