That will help out a little, just check the emissions laws in your state before you do it. In Colorado, I have to keep mine.
I also have a US Gear chip and I haven't really noticed too high of egt's unless I'm pulling the trailer up a 6-7% grade, then I have to watch it a little bit. I would also upgrade to a Tymar intake to get more air into the engine. That'll help too.

I know here in Utah where I live if you ever trade in your truck to a dealer they will charge you the cost of putting one back on. So the thing I did was removed it and knock the insides out of it and put it back on. Wasen't too hard, And still look as if it was their.
