The biggest reason to remove EGR is due to the fact its prone to leaking and often gets carbon deposit or fails not to mention the solenoid are pieces of crap.
The air pump and tubing also takes up a ton of space that can be used for a nice blower mounting bracket and the headers without the air and egr fittings flow better. The 1 -2 horse that can be found by removing the EGR are really irrelevant (probably not spelled right) but every bit helps in my book.

Well, I'll just finish with the fact that it's still illegal to remove EGR and AIR since it's a federal emission's. And, I passed inspection in NJ with my supercharged 93 Z28 which had no custom tuning, just an SLP chip and 160 t-stat. And that was the dyno roller emission's test. Every state is going to full emission's testing very soon so be prepared to put your stuff back on or make the car a limited use vehicle.
