Yeah, I'm about to completely EGR block and gas flow my SDI (one of them). I'll take some pics and post a "how-to" in a week or three. There have been a few people asking how to do it.

for the time being, you can simply unplug the vac hose to the egr valve and choke flap. Don't forget to block the suction off or it'll suck in loads of gunge/dust.
