6.0 Powerstroke Delete Kit

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for some advice on upgrading my truck. I've been hearing a lot about the 6.0 Powerstroke delete kit and I'm curious if it's worth the investment. I'm particularly interested in understanding how this system works and what kind of performance improvements I can expect.

Has anyone here installed one of these kits before? I'd love to hear about your experience, including any challenges you faced during installation and whether you noticed significant changes in reliability or fuel economy afterward.

Any honest feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Please tell us what you want to accomplish, especially when you ask about "performance".

At this stage, most owners are asking about reliability.

This poster has an interesting history of 14 posts, owning a 2021 asking about deletes last year, a 2016 asking about same stuff and now asking about a 6.0L delete......

Hmmmmm.......a little EPA fishy to me.

I agree the post sounds fishy ,,,(almost like a bot, asking very broad / generic questions and not even stating what they're looking at deleting) but it says he (or she) joined in April 2026,,,how could they have posted last year asking about other year model trucks if they just joined the forum like two months ago?

Kids don't even know what message board style forums are anymore. These internet Forums are as foreign to them as rotatory phones or VCR's. Its either a bot, someone fishing, or (IMHO, the least likely posibilty),an actual person asking a question.
