Gaining some more power
I have ordered my spartan phalanx for my 2011 6.7 along with an s&b cold air intake, sinister egr delete kit, and mbrp 5" downpipe back exhaust. Considered replacing the downpipe with the street diesel 4" but am just not sure it would be beneficial. Any other ideas to create some more power?

Thats a pretty good setup you got. The stock pump starts to run out of fuel in the 500/550 hp range. You are going to be around 500 hp with that setup, pretty much maxed out. H&S and SPE are working on dual fuelers and better turbos.

I did Spartan and deletes. But not EGR delete as I was advised not to do that. I left the stock resonator and exhaust tips on, I pulled the 6.7 badges off too, I don't like advertising what the truck can do.
It sucks that I have no pyro monitoring now and that makes me nervous. So I'm looking at options to get that done and the block off plate seems to be the easiest answer to that problem.
I've only had the deletes done for 10,000 km but it sure wakes the truck up, and I never thought it was sleeping before.

I basically have the same setup as you. I just unplugged the EGR system as per H&S's high sulfur tuning recommendations. I'll be purchasing a delete kit in the near future. This truck has been running deleted for 40k plus miles and loving it.

What tunes are you guys running with Spartan? And what is the reasoning you were advised against the egr delete

The guy that did mine said that the EGR is your pressure release and you lose that fail safe if you delete it. I haven't researched it further but decide to leave it for now.
I've been running 165, just haven't taken the time to try warhammer. It's not like I'm short of power now for what I do with the truck. I have thought about trying different setting to see if I can get better fuel mileage out of it though.
