I was also reading on the spartan forum that people were getting really high boost readings have you heard anything on this?

You get all the tunes, cold air intake as well as the pipes. I might only use the 275 and 310 tune a few time, but I know if i don't get them i will always wonder and probally end up buying them later.
I already have an intake and am looking at geting one of the specials they have right now so I think I am just going to go with the Phalanx Flash Console w/13 tunes and spartan down pipe back.

Does break-up time mean breaking up with your significant other so you can get away faster?

just ordered my spartan w/dpf delete today. should have it by monday, can't wait! I've been kicking this idea around for over a year now, that tuner would have itself almost paid for by now. But my dpf went bad and is being replaced on monday at the dealer...figured that since they'll have all those bolts broke free for me, I might as well take advantage of it!

I'm happy for you but you are killing me. I love the price of the valentine special but wish they had the cat delete in there also. Mix and matching other dealers pipes with Spartans dd cost about an additional $300. Too much extra for a piece of pipe that probably isn't going to change too much in the end anyway. Keep us up to date on the results.

someone on here last week said they e-mailed spartan and asked the question about the doc clogging up with no more regens, and the reply was that it would take a really long time for the doc to clog up running the 210 and under tunes. so if i get lucky and it never clogs, then great! and if sometime down the road it does clog, then i'll rip it out then.

I would love to see more folks chime in on the Spartans.

Good luck and please keep us updated. I am most interested in the 210 Tow.

Good luck!

I called and asked about that yesterday they said that special #2 had the cat/dpf delete. It is the down pipe back which I was told was the whole exhaust system. Is that incorrect?

I will be ordering mine tomorrow but unlike you Ford will not be warranting my dpf due to the fact that I have an aftermarket exhaust and intake so i will be taking the money I would spend on the dpf and putting it towards the spartan kit.

No, you are correct Hammy, the Spartan special #2 would be the entire exhaust system, which I don't really want. Decisions, decisions.

I thought of that but I'll end up paying just too much to simply include a cat delete pipe.

Ok....but think about it if you were unable to get the special price then to get the dpf delete you are paying 1500 so i figure if i can get both the cat and dpf delete for 1450 so what if it come with the exhaust. I even have a aftermarket on mine already. And I have an extra in the garage if anyone is interested....
