Default 02 LB7 EGR Delete Questions

Just replaced all 8 injectors =(... and remaned injector pump... still throws code P0405- EGR sensor low voltage... If I want to do a EGR delete what am I looking at in terms of parts/labor? Is it an intensive procedure? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
(Only mods are AFE stage II intake and MBRP 4" exhaust).

you will need a new up pipe, and a new intake y bridge or block off plates. and tuning to get rid of the egr in the computer

not much performance, but you can just do a block off plate and use a finger stick to delete the codes.
