what's involved in removing the whole system? why would you do just the plate instead of removing the whole system?

You would have to get different up pipes and remove the EGR cooler then just reroute the cooler lines but. You basically are doing a lot of extra work that isn't really necessary unless you are worried about coolant leaking into you intake which shouldn't happen unless your cooler fails

I just went out to block my EGR. Got the turbo resonator and intake elbow off and realized that there is no way my big hands will fit back there to loosen that pipe.

OK, finally got to this thing. How do you get those bolts off. I got a ratcheding wrench on them, but only have a couple inches of area to move in back there and can't get them to break free.
