I did my 17 F350 6.7 dually a little different. I left the cooler on and welded a plug in the 2 pipes to block them off. The dpf I gutted and run ran a straight pipe inside and reinstalled. It is deleted but still LOOKS 👀Factory. Which helps when the 5.0 is inspecting your truck. As long as they see dpf they don't look any further. I travel a lot with my 5th wheel rv and some states will check if it is deleted. I call them my sneaky pipes 😂😂 Oh yeah. Great video 👍💯

Great minds think alike. I’ve noticed a lot of this stuff too. I’m almost ready to pull it but those manifold bolts I keep spraying and soaking. It’s a project for me so I’m taking my time w this one. But it hasn’t been hard. Pretty straight forward. Just those two manifold bolts I’m cautious of.

You're really helpful and thoughtful. I appreciate you.

Great tips! That Pyro sensor will not work back in the block off plate. The stock pyro will show sporadic readings with most tuners like H&S, hence the reason most people use one from the DPF. Also, some block plates will not fit the DPF sensors properly in that the threads are not long enough to seal the sensor completely to the bottom of the EGR plate threads. I found using some small brass washers to shim up the Pyro probe works perfect. I may just do a video on this so that it make a little more sense as to what the hell I am talking about.

very informative video but i have some querries about the EGR bypass valve especially for Ford F550. i will be thankful if you can answer below 2 questions. Thanks 1.) Firstly, i would like to know the position and structure and shape of the EGR bypass valve how does it look like. 2.) Secondly, when the EGR bypass valve is closed, then the exhasut gas is bypassed directly in to the manifold. my question is when it is bypassed, then is it possible that some amount of the gas slips through the gaps around bypass valve or slips in the cooler? Or does the gas goes back?

Thank you for your video. It saved me lots of time. Question, did u get a coolant puking out of the over flow hose under the cap on your secondary coolant reservoir? I notice after putting that high pressure coolant hose in the reservoir, I get a small coolant puking.

No check engine lights after? Is it plug and play or do you need some tuning?

What does the delete / EGR kit cost average??.

Have a 2013 F350 that had tunes already with the EZlink system when I bought the truck. What are my options using the EZlink that's in it after a delete is done?

I don't see how wd40 or what ever people use gets on the threads of those bolts even before you put a wrench on it for the first time. Maybe I can't see in the video, but do the bolt threads protrude past the flange?

As long as you use a tuner. You can just remove the whole dpf tank and not worry about rerouting anything. The egr is the only thing that needs rerouting, since you’re not touching that, you should be all good. That’s under the truck next to the fuel tank.

What are your thoughts on getting a 2022 deleted and when do you think they will have all the bugs figured out? I'm getting a current year model but I'm still back and forth whether to get it deleted and how soon... Many suggested to run the 5 year warranty first or at least 3 years but Idk if using the truck for that long is gonna gunk up the engine and cause premature wear and tear. On the other flip of coin, dunno how reliable tunes are with the newer models and if they are truly bulletproof or problems are ought to happen as there's no way to bulletproof those stock engines once they have been tampered with. Thanks!

I don’t think they’ve figured out how to reburn the carbon without clogging the dpf and egr. With that said it’s always a good idea to delete, I mean, you could have no issues with a non delete for up to 200,000 miles. But for the most part, a delete exponentially increase the life of you truck and helps with power outputs. You can get 650-1200 horses on a properly tuned and deleted 6.7 truck. But if all you’re doing is towing, then just minimize your idle time, and open her up more often, and you might not need to do any deletes…the faults most powerstoke have is when they sit at idle too long. But if you want the power…I’d do the deletes right away.

​@@TorchedTv Thanks man for getting back. My sole purpose for doing the delete is not performance nor power increase. I'm considering it for the longevity of my engine and better overall maintenance of the truck as it no longer needs to recirculate any exhaust gases let alone doing unnecessary regen cycles whenever it needs to, etc... Better fuel mileage and unrestricted power boost is a bonus I won't turn away either. My only concern is if I got the delete done the proper way thru a professional that really knows what they are doing, am I still taking a risk on deleting emissions as far as the operation of truck being "modified" vs "stock" or it will run a 100% like stock minus a few hundreds of pound of dead weight? There's more to it than delete and tune. If calibrations aren't properly taken into consideration the compression ratios aren't changed, the temperatures aren't dropped, and the engine timing isn't altered then I maybe better off keep my emissions. You hear and read a lot of reviews about people running into issues caused by deletes even when it was done proper as those trucks specially the newer ones are designed and engineered to run with emissions and the moment you mess with them, they will cause issues whether that is momentarily or down the road. I reached out to a few local mechanics and they all said they have seen the good, bad, and the ugly, deleted trucks may cause issues and fail at higher altitudes so I'm kinda stuck in a rut here so I'd ask you as someone who's been there and has a better sense of knowledge of this transition even tho yours is relatively an older model year. Sorry for the long write-up but I think we have all gone thru this phase of due diligence . Thanks again!

Unless you do the delete yourself, your looking at $1000 of labor charges on top of the parts. But most offroad or custom shops will have the best kits available. Those can run upwards of $500. You can get complete knock off kits on Amazon or eBay for less then $200, which work, but needs checking every couple of years. Buying the right tuner is important, minimax has a good preloaded tune for $800, so does SCT. But look forward to spending upwards of $700 on a good tuner. Don’t buy a cheap tuner, you will regret it. Also, good tuners are getting harder to find thanks to the new emissions laws. Have fun dude!

If you can’t do it all in one crack then the first place to start is to buy a good tuner. Cheaper tuners are getting harder to come by because of new emission standards. Make sure it’s a dpf delete tuner, you can tell it’s for a diesel dpf delete because it will cost more then $600. But SCT still sells a decent tuner for these trucks, it can cost up $800-$1000 depending on the preloaded tunes. My truck used the mini max. It cost me $700. But I’m not sure if they still sell them. Next you can straight pipe your truck and unplug the throttle sensor and egr; I’d go 4” or wider diameter on the exhaust. That way you can start getting some real power to the wheels. Lastly, you should delete the egr!

We installed an SCT 4 on my brothers powerstroke with his delete, it works like a charm. My truck has a mini max, also good. Your trucks computer is trying to communicate with the dpf. But it obviously can’t because it’s been removed. Three different things could be the cause. 1. Your tuner doesn’t have the right tune to support a delete (most common) I suggest calling SCT and making sure they loaded the powerstroke delete tune, a tuner with a delete tune will usually cost more the $600, don’t fall for those tuners that are cheaper then that, they usually don’t have the right program for a delete. 2. One of your sensor wires arent plugged in, there are two, large, main O2 sensors, that plugged into your dpf: yes, remove them from the dpf but the wiring and the sensor in its entirety need to remain plugged into the sensor harness box. The wiring can be wrapped up and stashed anywhere under the body of the truck. 3. There is wiring damage on one of those two larger O2 sensor wires.
