Look at the diagram on the page EDBSO linked to. No need to read the whole thread. It's literally one diode and one resistor. Doesn't get much easier than that. Installed it a few months ago myself, and disconnected vacuum from the EGR valve so it will never open. No codes set.
While you're in there replacing the plastic fuel lines, swap the o-rings out for viton. I bought mine from fryer power, a nice complete kit:
Viton for Mercedes Engines at FRYERPOWER HOME
For ECU tuning, you need someone who will replace the soldered on chips, with a pair of sockets. I know Jeff at Rocketchip has the equipment and expertise to perform this correctly. I've used him a number of times for VW TDI's, very satisfied, I'll be going back to him with my E300. He can dial the EGR duty cycle down to zero too, if you prefer this approach over the diode-and-resistor solution.
As for the PCV, it's only a few parts on our turbos. 65, 68, 71, 74 in the diagram. Thankfully unlike the internet of pipes and junctions like the normally aspirated 606 had.
