DPF/CAT delete and Edge Racing Programmer
Well,
I finally got to get the truck out for a good run after the dpf and cat delete and other than it sounding like a vaccum cleaner at the tailpipe it seems to run allot smoother. One thing that I am not impressed with is with the mileage. Everywhere you read you hear of gains big and small, but mine seems to be the same if not a little worse. I pulled our 35' fvr a couple hunder miles this past weekend and averaged between 8 - 10 mpg, prior to the delete I was getting a constant 10 mpg and boy the smell of the exhaust is terrible when you are idling, you even get a slight smell in the cab for awhile if it idles for a period of time, anyone else have this issue??

Yea,I tried the Edge too. Same results on My truck. It seemed to take more turns on the starter before it would fire and evan through a code on the highest setting a few times(cant remember what it was though).
Ran about 7-8 kph faster in a 1/4 mile but in normal driving it was not any better mpg.
Took the edge tuner off.
Have Spartan 275 on My truck for 10000km and it made a big difference.
Starts-runs-pulls way better and average 2mpg more.
