I thought there was a good reason for the EGR, namely, to reduce pollution from the tailpipe. It's function is to send a portion of the exhaust gases back through the combustion cycle to be more fully burned. Won't disabling the EGR send more pollution into the air? Is this worth the modest increase in power or engine longevity that you might get from removing it?
