When I ran with disabled EGR in my TDI (with CEL set) it made no significant difference in economy. However it made a huge improvement (about 10%!) in the fuel economy of my Jeep CRD, and that has a modification that tricks the ECU so it doesn't set a CEL.

So I am working on the same device for my TDI and will document any differences here when I do that.
