Easy job and completely reversible if need be.
The only thing I'm concerned with is keeping an eye on the oil usage as in theory the cylinder temps should be higher since you are now burning (exclusively) air/fuel without reburnt exhaust entering the picture. Took it for a test drive & no check engine lights as EGR is still connected to plug.
I'll take a quick pic and post.
