DPF delete?

[Mudman]

Do it.  If you dont have emissions than get r dun.  Way better mpg and power plus your engine runs easier with lower temps.  Friend did his 08 cummins and 12mpg went to 18mpg and power is extreme. Deletes and minimax and exhaust air intake.  Fords do great as well.  These emissions are EPA gov. crap that doesnt benefit your truck one bit.

As of the 13th H&S has been temporally shut down by the EPA (go to their web site) I have a 99 24 valve Cummings and a 12' HO Cummings and it is night and day difference between the oil that comes out of the 2. The 12's oil with EGR stinks like diesel fuel and if you get it on you does not want to come off from all the soot that's ran thru the EGR into the oil. I will guarantee the 99 is cleaner inside the head w/280K miles compared to my 33K mile 12' and the 99 gets much better milage. As a heads up starting next year the EGR is gone and Cummings is going to urea like the big trucks and what Ford,Chevy use.

Are you sure about no egr on a Cummins?

The Dmax and Powerstroke still use them even with the urea.

I have an 08 6.7 cummins. I did the EGR and DPF delete 2 years ago. 495 for the smarty programmer and the 300 for the diamond eye straight pipe exhaust. Plus 300 for the gauges. I can run it at 40,70 or 100 extra horse. Or i can set it while running at a percentage of any of those HP numbers.

I love it. I just ran to colorado loaded and got 20 MPG for the 2300 miles there and back.

When i was doing my research i was looking at longevity of the motor and the EGR is so bad for the low end of the motor. Just deleting the EGR will increase the life of the motor.

I did all the work myself. And i kept everything. The smarty reprograms the computer like it wasn't even there, it is a catcher type programmer, the box saves number of starts and all the original software. I have 50,000 on the truck and no matter what goes wrong the warranty doesn't cover it anyways. The truck was at the dealership every month for 02 sensors and had horrible performance. So it was worth it to me.

For starters, If you're talking Dodge, Ford, or Isuzu, go to the forums that specialize in that breed.
 
I'll suggest this forum. Read.. Join.. Ask more questions. You're not the first to reinvent the wheel.

 Your right there just going to the urea like there big engine use. My problem now is if the EPA shuts down H&S what happens if the unit goes out and I can't replace it? For the guy's that have already done the delete and didn't keep there stock parts well! I even called a company today in Vancouver, Canada and as soon as I said I live in Seattle she said they can no longer ship to the USA.

[jackelope]

No urea in the dodges yet because they have been able to meet emissions standards thus far. The other guys couldnt without the urea.
The oil in every diesel that comes in my shop is black with fuel in it....dpf or no dpf. My '94 6.5tdi chevy's oil was black from fuel in the oil.

Call Lenny at Dynomite Diesel in Monroe. See what he has to say.

I would of sworn that all 2013 Dodges have the urea systems in them. Also I thought their 4500 and 5500 series had them in 2012.

I had an 08 ford 6.4 and ran a spartan tuner with the dpf delete, 4in exhaust, and s&b intake... I did it for the mileage and saw around 6+ mpg gain. It was well worth the money. Spartan is hands down the best tuner for the 6.4, its alot of money, but it will give you the best mileage along with the most horsepower. Just make sure to keep it on 275+ hp tune or lower so you dont destroy your transmission

You're right. I was thinking 2012. We just started getting '13's in. Havent seen a diesel yet.

Either way It's bs we are the only country that requires that dumb stuff. The EPA is the reason why we don't have more mini diesels here.

[jackelope]

Agreed.

IMO,its the American public and the pictures of old stinky,dirty diesels stuck in their head thats keeping them from becoming popular. The increased price of the diesel engine option doesn't help.

If they realized that their Accord/Camry/Altima could get 50mpg as opposed to 30,and not be any more dirty or smelly than the gas engines available,small diesels would sell like hotcakes.

By the way,we aren't the only country that requires the new emissions standards on diesels.

Yep the ford Focus in Europe with the little diesel I heard gets over 60 MPG but they won't sell it here
