EGR delete?

Hey guys, i have had my truck deleted (2016) for around 40k miles. I left the egr cooler in and installed the block off plates. I have been looking into completely deleting the egr cooler. I came across this and wanted to get some opinions? I have heard that getting rid of the cooler entirely is better? Is this true or am I ok with what i have going now?

Thanks!

If you plan on keeping the truck for a long time probly removing everything is the best choice but this is just my opinion. What program And tune did you go with?
Dpf is gone, I am using sct with GH tuning. I like it, but I really wanna change my shift points and a few other things. I haven’t been able to get that done so I’m thinking about trying someone else, just have to find people that can tune the sct still, seems like they are all going away from it...

Whatever kit you get, make sure it has the flow-thru plate for the cylinder head coolant path. Don’t get the one that “dead heads” the two coolant passages.
