True, however if you disable the EGR completely you reduce teh temperature event more and save even more fuel. However if you will probably fail the smog test.

Yep, my MPG's went up by 1.5 on the fillup after I disabled it, and it seems to run better as well.
Smog test? What smog test, this is MI! No inspections of any kind!
