My question is what does deleting this system effect? What are the benefits and drawbacks?

Primary concerns for drawbacks are low speed drivability, fuel consumption, and idle quality (since as I understand it the EGR is closed at full throttle anyway)

Drawbacks
1. Breaking Federal Law by increasing emissions.
2. Hurting part throttle economy.

Benefits
1. With the increase in greenhouse gasses we can look foreward to driving shorter distances to the ocean or Gulf.
2. Global climate changes increase vacationing possibilities.
