has anyone done this? pros and cons?

keeps intake clean but gives a CEL, if you can stand that then do it, it will cool intake charge a bit but it is not noticable, you will not see an increase in power, just intake track will stay clean, if you remove it also put a breather in the PVC tube

Not enough

I have the block off plates to do mine. When the ported/polished intake manifold foes on the EGR comes off.

The EGR block is not a way to increase power but a way to maintain power. You keep the airflow smoother by not building up dirt and gunk in the manifold. I think this is needed if you go through the trouble of porting/polishing your intake manifold.

Yes, you will trip the CEL... but I've had mine on since I installed the S-AFC so no big difference for me. But the ASOG guys did figure out a way to put a resiter in line to keep the right signal voltage to the ECU... could work for us.

"The fastest draw is when the sword never leaves the scabbard,
The strongest way to block, is never to provoke a blow,
And the cleanest cut is the one withheld."
