Tuner

I have an 05 f250 that is deleted and I just bought a new sct live wire tuner that will be here in a few days. Will I have any issues tuning my truck due to having an egr delete?

Shouldn’t be an issue tuning it, but will most likely throw a code for the egr delete after tuning as the new tuners don’t allow it to be turned off. You’re check engine light may come on, or it may not. Some trucks show the light with that code, some don’t

From my experience the engine light is on only on the 2005+ models for P0401 EGR system insufficient flow detected. If that holds true, yours would be on if the SCT cannot delete EGR system.

What’s weird is my friend’s truck, which is a 2005, didn’t have the light come on when we removed his egr before tuning. My Excursion, also a 2005 but mostly like a 99-04 in terms of electronics, did show the light. 🤷‍♂️
