DPF delete is an off road application. Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is used to trap the soot an oil burner makes.
In order to get rid of it you need to re-program and PCM (power control module).
So a programmer capable of going around the programming for cleaning the DPF is necessary.

just be aware that you will need to return it to stock if you need to take the truck in for service.

suggest you get the truck broke it before you put the extra power to it first though..It is a lot more than what you are used to in a stock form.

I don't understand why someone would spend the money for the tuner,dpf delete pipe and take a chance on warrenty work. I figured the cost of fuel savings by going that route and figured it would take years to break even. This was when fuel was $ 4.50 gal.
One would have to put on alot of mileage each year to warrent this. Enlighten me if I'm wrong.

In the ops case, he is a farmer so I can understand his need right away.
In my case I did it to give it a little power, run a tad more effiecent and because I could. Will I ever recoup my cost, maybe or maybe not. Not a concern to me.

If you're gunna burn all that fuel anyway, you may as well have the power too. Once you do it, it'll be like the V-8 commercials ( slap your forehead ) and think "why didn't I do this sooner"? Fuel savings is only part of it. It's efficiency and "fun factor" as well.

Mine was a 500 miles break in being an 08. So I think I would follow that as long as you can stand it.
Then I am of the opinion, drive it just like you have always done with diesels and it will serve you better.
Ever stand beside one that was used correctly and one that was used for groceries? then you know what I mean.

I wouldnt want the DPF on a farm either(not that I like it on the road either but such is life). If you take the truck in the fields with 1,400 EGT's youre bound to set your field on fire.
Aside from that the benefits of deleting the DPF are better MPG, better performance, less fuel in the oil, lower EGT's, and if youre not working the truck hard (like those of us that dont tow in the winter) the truck starts to run like crap as you fill the DPF and fail to get a really hot regen.
Other than the warranty concern I cant find a down side to removing it. Just wish I had the balz to do it
