No, it's not bogus. My statement was more of a general one and not necessarily aimed at the 3.0 Duratech. I am in agreement with you that there is no real benefit to using EGR other than emissions (hence why the racing world does not use them). Because of the numerous 3L turbo engines out there it would appear that the stock pistons are likely stout enough to deal with the higher temps. All I am saying is you need to do your homework before you run off and block the EGR.
