Default Pros and cons of egr delete?

What are the pros and cons of deleting the egr system? Would this mean the car wouldn't pass emissions tests? (needed in pa) and how would one go about doing this, I googled and only found egr delete kits for ford diesel trucks

You can just wire a 10k-ohm, 1/2 watt resistor across the egr connector to get rid of the CEL.
