The engine will run much better if you remove the EGR stuff. If that car has thermal reactors, rip them off too and put on a set of Bavaria manifolds. (The down pipes will need to be made a little longer.)
If your conscience is bothering you over this, you can get an aftermarket catalytic converter and put it on there for under $200. That'll do more good than anything that's on there now. (I would.)
