Big thanks to you senix

I sold the superchips 1856 for terrible tranny upshifts

I purchased this GEAR BOX Z DPF-R to ONLY delete the filter &

I am Super Happy with it so far.

Now the trans upshifts as it did bone stock.

I think the MPG is going to be better than the

superchips economy tune.

Time will tell ...

BDK, yeah, keep us informed. I'd be interested to hear whether your getting similar results to what others I've talked to have reported.

Please keep us updated on your Gear Box Z DPF-R findings. I'm thinking of going the same route and would like to hear your real world experience before making the change.

Thanks

I am in the same boat. I have a stuck egr and wand to do a full delete. Remove the egr and run an aftermarket pipe, not just block off the egr. I think someone here posted they needed to run a jumper capacitor on the old egr harness to keep the computer happy. Can anyone confirm this or can you just leave the harness unplugged with the gearbox z.

Doing more research I think it was the throttle body harness that required the jumper.

SCT 3015 with a tune my buddy has the you can remove DPF and everything from the EGR and comes with 5 tunes

Total cost 367 for SCT and 500 for tunes so 867 heck a lo cheaper than these 1500 tuners that they no longer updates.

Yes I've been running it for 6 months.
No I don't get a cut.

Tunes I have already been updated twice, like to hear when was the last tune these old DPF delete tunes were updated.

No black smoke or hardly any on levels 1-3.
4 and 5 is race tunes and level 3 = +100 hp and +250 torque which is enough for me.

SCT 3015 R do you mean?
Mine wouldn't work with a 3015?

Or did you tune it yourself?
