Anyone with Spartan DPF Delete and have problems?

I'm thinking of letting the big dog off the porch and going with Spartan / DPF delete but was curious if this has caused issues with anyone. I know many like this tune but how many have had issues and has anyone logged a bunch of miles yet since using this product.

only 3,000 miles since I installed mine and no problems whatsoever. i've been running the 275 tune daily and love it. I recently tuned it down to pull and she felt like a pooch compared to the 275. Wish I had more miles on it to answer your question but hopefully I helped a little. Before I bought mine I tried to find someone who had problems and couldn't find a one. Great system.

I've had my truck tuned for way over a year and no problems at all. Have the 75, 150, 210, 250, 275, and the 310 test tune. I've also towed 21,000 with the 210 tune. Egt's were up there, but not as high as when a stock truck goes into regen. If you want some extra power and an increase in economy go with Spartan...

I also do tech support for them, so if you need some help, just let me know... Sending you a pm...

When did Spartan put a 310 tune out? Is it better than the 275 or more impressive?

It's still being tested. Much better than the 275 in many ways!!!

You know, the 310 is starting to remind me of the UFO crash landing in Roswell. Everyone swears it existed but there's no definitive proof.

From a look at your signature, looks like there is also no 75, 150, 210, and on and on!!!!

I've also been waiting for a response from Matt about a question regarding the tuning. Haven't heard anything in repeated emails. Donna and another guy mentioned they both forwarded my question, but still no response. :/

Been talking to Aaron about what I'm thinking, but he wasn't sure about it.

If I were to PM my question, could you give me an idea?

UGA33 has a good reputation on FTE. UGA33 has a good reputation on FTE.
I have had the privelage of riding in a truck with the 310 test tune and all I have to say is WOW. Its scary what a tuner/intake/exhaust truck can do now these days. Truck put down 560hp and 1110 ft/lbs on the rollers with the 310 tune.

hey mick, any idea if and when Spartan is going to make the 310 test tune available to everyone? I've been running the 275 and love it, I can't imagine how much fun the 310 would be. I'd also just like to point out that noone has replied with any spartan problems. I tried for weeks to find someone who had problems and couldn't find a one. That really helped to make my decision for me.

I could probably get an answer from Matt. Send me an email:

techsupport@spartandieseltech.com

Last time I talked with Matt, he said that he would release the 310 when he felt that all the bugs were worked out of it and no sooner. I know he's made a lot of progress on it and I would think (just guessing) that it would be out after the weather changes again. That way it can still be tested in the cold weather. But like I said, that's just a guess......
