EGR question so i have been searching about deleting my egr and everywhere i read it says that it doesnt help anything but clean up your engine bay. my question is, doesnt the egr bring hot exhaust gasses back into the intake? so if you delete your egr wouldnt you be getting rid of hot air and gasses and getting more cold air into your engine which makes better performance? just a thought i had.

It takes some of the exhaust gas and puts it in the intake, then when it goes into the cylinder it does not mix with the air/fuel, it just takes up space. This actually increases gas mileage, remove the EGR will lower your gas mileage, but not significantly.
