I think it was some emissions type lark Rob, which general consensus established to be of no use, hence your finding. To get rid of the pipe which runs from the exhaust to the inlet manifold you could get d24 manifolds which don't have egr. Most leave the pipe in situ, but blanked at the exhaust end.
Forgot to mention the D24T manual which is part V97000164 at ₤38, there is a 240 manual on the d24 online at k-jet.org
My car used idle a bit erratically, cured by a K&N filter. I see that someone went as far as fitting an induction kit from a BMW 735i which I'd be tempted to try sometime.
You may want to check the pump timing, which requires a kit. Some of the other "recommended" minor mods are; custom exhaust (₤300) or rodding the cat (₤0, providing you don't break anything), replacing the mechanical fan with the electrical one from a 960 (₤50 inc relay) and switched on when needed.
To clean the injectors take off the filter and fill with transmission fluid (mineral, not synthetic).
