You could create a detonation problem. EGR is designed to lower combustion temperature. High temperatures help create detonation. If your motor is good and clean (of carbon), your timing set right and everything and you're running good fuel, you shouldn't have much to worry about.

you'll fail emmisions without the egr(but you can always glue it on the manifold for testing)
