I found this site, learned a few things...

I'm wondering, if the EGR decreases the temperature of the combustion, would increasing the EGR amount into the intake mean an even colder combustion (more mass means harder to heat up)? If so, would colder spark plugs be of benefit?
At the end of the EGR section, it says the reason EGR increases FE (among other things) is because it increases the mass on the piston, helping to force it down. I wonder if the reason why pgfpro's turbo helped increase mileage was because it helped increase the pressure on the piston, forcing it down against the vacuum.
