The computer and truck are happy. The emissions inspector may not be so happy.

If you have to be tested, your choices are to either not delete, or delete, but reinstall everything and take the aftermarket tune off of the truck before going for your emissions test. Once the test is over, you can take all of the emissions stuff back off and retune the truck.

Well pulled the trigger, I have everything on order to do my delete. I will be deleting the DPF , deleting the EGR, going to run 4" stainless exhaust and an Edge monitor. I will keep you informed with the results when finished for those who may be interested

With tuning and tuners, you really get what you pay for. It really comes down to your driving style and future mods in mind. Find a good information source on your specific styles, read up and form your own opinion. There are some cheap tuners that have issues with connectivity and won't run the higher end tunes. There are tunes that shift crappy and run high EGTs. Stay away from both of those. Beware of the spacebook clowns that beat their chest about having the best. Watch for the people that are pushing the limits of the 6.7 and follow them. They are typically tweaking the tunes to get the most reliability out of all the components.
