If you live in an area where you have to pass emissions DO NOT mess with your EGR. You will fail if you mess with it. As far as hp, gains would be minimal. EGR stands for exhaust gas recurculation. basically the way it works is by letting some exhuast gas back into the intake manifold. the exhaust gas is mixed in the combustion chamber and burned along with the new air. the reason they do this is for emissions and and to lower the combustion temperature. you could free up a lil power if you went non EGR, but you could be in some trouble come time for an emissions test.
