    Well egr came out in late 2003. With that came the vgt turbo. They need that turbo to make the egr work correctly.

    I'm pretty sure it should have a vgt on there.

    I thought so as well but it has an everyday waste gated turbo. The driver says it will really pull. I’ll look around to see if anything else isn’t 100% normal looking.
    I’m beginning to shy away from the low mileage 07 as he can’t read the serial number. He knows where to look and that Detroit does do a good job of stamping the block.
