Every single other forum is full of people saying their mpg went up, egts went down, hp gained 100 easily, and shifts were like butter. Those are all good things, if reliability is there.


Aye this be true. My Uncle did it to his 2008 3500 4x4 Cummins. Said he would do it 10/10 times. Gained almost 200 HP and 100 torques. Plus when he puts it in the economy setting on his computer chip he gets 25mpg on the highway. I don't know if this will destroy the engine in the long run but for now his truck is a beast. When we had that massive ice storm he spent 28 straight hours in it pulling cars out of ditches or ferrying people from the interstate to a shelter. Helped over 500 people. That truck is full of awesome.

The best thing about deleting a diesel is getting rid of the piece of crap DEF system. DEF systems have left me stranded on the side of the road at least 10 times, I kind of lost count. This was in 6 different trucks from 2 different companies on 2 different sides of the country. DEF sucks everywhere.

It won't hurt the engine.

If he beats on it he'll eat a transmission pretty quick, but that's to be expected with that much more power than it was designed for.

I truly don't get this, how can anyone even have that happen? The Fords give a 500 miles until empty warning on the DEF before going into limp mode. I'd assume others do the exact same thing. I fill mine up with fluid about once every 4-6 months out of precaution at the truck stop for about $2.65 a gallon and have only had my "500 miles until def empty" warning come on once in 41,000 miles.
