You've entered into a discussion about a component you know nothing about. Not the wisest of ideas.
On the earlier Euro3 Mondeos the EGR is vacuum operated, so not part of the ECU. I removed mine completely on the Mk3 I had. Got better MPG, better performance, and no downsides other than a slight increase the Hydrocarbon emissions.
On virtually all modern EGR-equipped diesels the EGR is best blanked off once the car gets past a couple of years of age.
