Default RE: how to remove egr properly

did you remove everything else ? you can block the hole from the lower just w/ a non egr gasket

y-tube off the back of the heads, plug w/ thermactor plugs (threaded inserts..or or end for end the y-yube brackets and put them on backwards w/ rtv)
plug about 3 vac lines w/ caps, plug the steel tube going into the h-pipe

thats about it...no it won't lose power at all, after you block the egr heat to the tb...then it's ok to bypass the coolant as well. the coolant is to cool it from the egr gasses....when it's gone, it just gets it hot.
