Plumb in a pressure gauge and see if it's building pressure. This test is well documented here and youtube. The reservoir should be in the lower half.
After the engine is warmed up, open the cap and vent any pressure then tighten the cap again. Go for a drive at WOT and see if the gauge spikes up to 15 or so. If it is rapidly then you have a combustion leak into the coolant system. If you're EGR cooler deleted then I'd suspect head gaskets as long as the coolant isn't contaminated with fuel or oil.
