EGR question

My truck had an EGR delete on it when I bought it. I was wondering if I put an upgraded EGR cooler on it, like a Bulletbroof or a Sinister that comes with the oil cooler kit (Basic Solution kit), would I have to install an EGR valve also? Right now there is a plate covering the hole of the valve location.

Without the valve wouldn't you just be sending cooled exhaust gas down the exhaust pipe????? It seems like if you don't have a valve to direct the gas into the intake theres no need too cool the gas???

I would think you would need the egr valve back in otherwise you would just be recirculating unmetered cooled exhaust back to the intake.
