I've got no EGR system

Due to a blown head gasket I've taken the head off my 7M-GTE to discover it has no EGR cooler, which is a plate on the back. I've also got no EGR valve. Instead I have a little plate blocking off the exhaust hole where the EGR cooler would cover effectively ignoring the EGR system altogether. Does anyone know of any reason why I shouldn't keep this setup? I've driven my car for two years without a problem, besides the headgasket. That was always going to happen though.
