Default !EGR mod, is it worth doing?

I did it on my '98 and was thinking about doing it to the '99 but is it even really worth the 10 minutes of trouble? how much could you gain from this mod maybe 1HP if that? <img src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" border="0">

It all depends if you really want to do it or not...you don't get a lot of HP from it...

'specially if your EGR tube cracks while doing your header install... <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> Couple of quickie 1/4" aluminum blockoff plates, and take 3-4 lbs off the nose of the car.

SES Light? Aww, heck, I can live with that, since it's on anyway... <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

might as well do it, especially if you plan on using nitrous or something.
