EGR delete PCM reflash Check Engine light, any fix?

Hi All, I have a 2014 ford F350. Was flood damaged, all fixed and running great except a couple of small problems.

Was trying to solve a mykey problem with volume being restricted to 49% and IDS said it had found new PCM and TCM software and should it update.

Me being a dork, (forgetting that the truck is not stock has EGR delete and other stuff that I'm not even sure of) said 'sure go ahead!!'

As soon as it was reflashed, it came up with errors

ENGINE IDLE SPEED
EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION ERROR
REDUCED POWER

did some googling and it seems (possibly) that when the truck was modified, the PCM was reflashed. When I upgraded the PCM I screwed it up as it set it back to original factory settings.

Can anyone suggest the best way to fix this. Do I need to buy an SCT tuner? Is there any way in IDS to disable EGR (I have a clone and I cannot find it). Am I best to take it to a shop that know what they are doing and have the reprogram the PCM.

Would greatly welcome advice here.

Sounds like you need to tune for the mods you have

SOLVED, took the plunge and bought MAXX HS Performance tuner, uploaded tunes, all runs great again.
