People commonly remove them if they have headers with no provision for the EGR feed tube that goes to the RH exhaust.
Exhaust Gas Recirculation. It does add a significant amount of heat to the back of the manifold and has been blamed (Though not proven) to be the cause of the Intake manifold oil leak. Does the air travel too fast through the intake to be effected by the increased temperature though? Anyone done a before/after dyno test with just !EGR?
You can usually re-use the old egr parts as block-off plates, just plug any openings....be creative.

there would be no gain at WOT because the egr is blocked off when you get on it or above a certain rpm. It recycles the exhaust to lower cylinder temps. below 2500 degrees because the exhaust produces alot more emissions above that temp.
