well can it be done.. and if so what are gains/cons also am pretty sure this would trigger a check engine light.. how can I rewire it to fix that.

Thanks

LOL I was just gonna IM you kwanza about your opinion on this... let me know - still undecided

edit: keep in mind this is for a 5sfte project and I will be running 93+ octane

Basically, the EGR cleans up unburned gases and recirculates them through the intake system. It won't necessarily harm a turbo set-up or anything like that, but if it's in the way, you can remove it. It's not the actual removing of the system that will do anything, but it's whether the ECU likes it or not (damn OBDII). The ECU will most likely throw codes if the EGR is removed... and that with a turbo set-up can lead to unknown circumstances. Again... damn OBDII trying to think for itself! (great for smog techs... bad for tuners)... I'm sure there's a way to work around it... so i'll do some read-up at our shop tomorrow and see if I can come up with anything...
