EGR stands for exhaust gas recirculation. You engine put some exhaust has back though the car and this help the car get better gas milege and lower emisions. I don't know how the exhaust gas help do this but it does.

Yeah, I don't know too much about it either, but I remember seeing a dyno of someone with a turbo who got close to 40whp just by removing it. It's highly illegal though... and there's something else that makes it a undesireable mod but I can't remember.
