Diesel EGR valve cleaning, should i delete it ?

[Accord127]

I am cleaning EGR valve of my 2.2 diesel. I found the pipe was half blocked with black greasy gunk, i have cleaned it. Tomorrow i will take intake out as well and clean it too, now the question is that soon i would be driving car 800-900 km daily in extreme hot weather, should i delete the EGR or not, because deleting EGR will make car engine run more hot and it will put extra strain on head gasket and cooling system too. In my opinion i think I should not delete the EGR, whats expert’s opinion / suggestion on it?
Car is 2005 honda accord 2.2 i ctdi

What you’re describing relates to a petrol engine which has a much higher operating temperature. Blank and deactivate the egr, you’ll never look back.

Egr blanking will require some ecu remap ?

This was the condition, of the pipe in behind the coolant reservoir , egr is near air filter box ( not like civic 2.2 whose egr is near to oil dip stick )

But how should i do it ? Where to place the blanking plate, any software changes needed ?

You need somebody who can remap your ECU. Where are you?
