fitted it this morning and done over 200 miles today and i love it, 200 miles of empty b roads couldnt be more fun.
light is on but this was one from when i disabled the egr for a day. will reset tomorrow and see if it comes back on. shut down is louder but nothing to worry about after turning the engine of a few times i didnt notice it.
im sure jabba sport said you can make it fit
Cut the OEM off the end of the pipe and shove the pipe inside the rubber bit like you would a silicone pipe.
I've got one of these pipes ordered from Jabba - might have it for the weekend but will fit it when the hybrid turbo is being fitted. 
Here's my attempt on the EGR valve removal, straight through no restriction:
This is off a Passat PD130, so its much larger in bore to the 110TDI EGR. I will be routing all new boost pipework around the other way, so hence a manifold in the other direction
I bored out the EGR on the lathe I have and turned down the standard boost pipe connection and put some groves on the outside ready for silicon hose and clamp!

quick question has any removed the exhaust cooler after fitting an egr race pipe as its no longer used? saw on diesel geeks website this piece of kit http://www.dieselgeek.com/servlet/Detail?no=413
morning all,
am trying to do this, but as noted removal is not easy.
i've got 3 of the four off, and removed the big pipe that comes out and points toward coolant tank.
that fourth though is a right tight arse. not luck at all. time for a cuppa and then another go.
what did people clean theres with?
where does the blanking plate? golf tee actually go? i've looked but can't picture the explanaitions. can't afford the race egr so not an option.
ta
[edit]
right i've undone for allen key bolts.
x2 horizontal
x2 that point upwards, but not shifting. then notice that tube goes down and there x2 here also horizontal. Are these the feckers i should have undone? not happy if so as hands are cut to shreds as two screws points inwards that rub against hands, and no chance i can undo the other x2 horizontal ones -> crappy cars and there stupid notions.

more i re-read this thread the more buggered i think i am.

fan bl()()dy tastic -> egr off
5 allen bolts need to be removed in all, ot 4 as have seen being mentioned
mine is so caked in soot after 90kthe flap is stuck at an angle and it has no chance of moving. stuck solid still in open position.
will try and post pics in a bit.
now to clean...
[/edit]
[edit]
unable to clean
it is going in the bin and being replaced -> the plate that should be attached to the bar isn't... and so caked after 90k it is thick and couldn't see how anything was getting through
pics: http://www.photobox.co.uk/album/189547111
i use photobox not bucket for upload, sorry if adds complexity...
so, anybody recommend a good egr valve bypass/race replacement???
seen egrvalve.co.uk -> thoughts please
heard jabbasport -> do they still do -> thoughts please

very nice, did you remove the diaphram and valve stem complete? reason I ask is that the "valve guide" has a steel sleeve- when cut approx 1/4" is left in the main housing -It may be possible for it to fall out when hot- wouldn't like to chance itHere's my attempt on the EGR valve removal, straight through no restriction:
