Few questions

Hey y'all, I've been looking for a good, reliable diesel forum to be part of and I stumbled on this place. First off what an awesome community here! Quick and reliable! So I'll get to it, my truck is a '14 F350 crew cab, and I have a SCT X4 tuner, 4" flo pro exhaust, and S&B cold air intake. So here are my questions.

For my next upgradet, should I get a fuel pump or fuel separators next? What kind and what will I see if I get it?

Also my EGR is deleted, should I take it out? I want to, but I don't want to waste $100 on block of plates. But I kinda want to.

Not sure on direction, from what I understand on fuel, separators would be a great investment. I am curious if your off idle throttle response improved with deletes?

Welcome to the forum. In regards to your next upgrades, I would do the separator. I personally am looking at doing that. Dieselsite's filter is really nice and integrates with the stock components nicely. I wouldn't bother with the fuel pump until you get to the point of doing injectors.

In regards to the EGR, i'd remove the whole thing. It cleans up all the cooler garbage on that side of the motor. For the $100 or so dollars for the full delete, I think it is worth it.

Just my two cents and it is what I am planning on doing on my 15.

My mechanic talked to me about a new fuel pump and separator, still, I will mull it over till spring. Yes, get that junk off your engine and block it.
