I did my EGR delete when i converted to an ls6 intake/race headers. If you're planning on keeping the stock LS1 intake you can just do the egr mod - sawing off the egr tube where it goes into the intake so it doesnt impede airflow. Probably worth a couple hp. If you want to remove egr completely you will either have to plug the existing hole in the ls1 intake or, preferrably, get an LS6 intake.
