This time I’ll document it as I do it.
Watching with interest. Been on the pending improvement list for some time. The non-Turbo side exhaust manifold EGR off take looks to be the perfect place for an EGT probe.
A full EGR blanking and removal kit complete with new heat shields and all blanks and plugs needed would be a highly valued bit of kit.
I'm another who's on the list to remove the EGR coolant pipe's & hose's. EGR has been blanked so it would be good to simplify the cooling system a little

Watching with interest also. A full EGR delete and plumbing removal is on the list. Priority is low, but it's there...
Something to ponder...
I generally don't recommend a mod for the sake of doing a mod. While I do plenty of tune and egr "solutions" I don't hammer customers to do it.
There are plenty of D3 / D4 (mostly D4) that come in from the county and when you look in the intake its pristine clean (yes oily but not that nasty tar like product).
If your vehicle gets plenty of long drives there there is less issues relating to egr, clogging the intake.

I had mine done when I had a tune up done by my indie in May. Car was 7.5 years old then. 99% suburban driving. Hate to think what they looked like. FWIW, I went to Wollongong about 90km south of where I live and back in August. Fuel economy was 9.8L/100kms. That was sitting on 110 and 100 for 90% of the time. Much better economy since the change.
