I went with leaving the EGR attached, but changing the opening value of it in VAGCOM, meaning that it will never open

Have you got a block bung? it fills the hole in the block where the turbo oil return use to go, also think about the intercooler as if you need any silicon pipe or bends search for MRSILICON on ebay, they are great :ok
