Howdy! There is no EGR on the 20v except in Cali from what I've seen. The backfire is not something you should be experiencing, ever. What other running problems do you have, if any? There must be other symptoms while running, a backfiring car is not a happy car.

Cheers,

Howdy! The 20v does not have an EGR valve though, nor does the 20v have an air temp sensor either. The V6 fuel system is completely different from the 20v fuel system.

Cheers!
