I wouldn't think you would loose any HP, the EGR system is for emissions reasons only. Its purpose is to dump exhaust back into the air intake to create lower combustion temperatures and in return lower NOX in the exhaust. This usually happens when you take your foot off the gas and coast at higher speeds and NEVER at WOT.

EGR Pipe
My cost to have replaced was $480, $1000 is ridicuous,couldn't fix it myself, the pipe is only about a foot long, I also didn't notice any difference in hp, but definitely got rid of the crackling sound.

I got the EGR changed last friday. Got the bill today and the dealer charged me 200Euros for labor. It is the first time I changed the EGR (410000km). Car runs a lot smoother and is taking less fuel. Thank you for the instructions seems they helped my mechanic.
