Any of you run a 6.7 Cummins with the EGR delete on it, and if so what programmer are you using? Trying to get the same mileage out of this one, that I was getting out of my 06. This one has a LONG ways to go, but it sure rides and drives nice.

cure said:I have a 07 and the farm has a 09 and we did them both put an edge system on my and increased the fuel mileage up to around 17-18 miles pulling and around 22-23 not. I bought mine right after edge got sued by the feds for the program it was running and not knowing this at the time mine will not delete out all the code errors. The truck runs good and I have not had any problems with it put about 30,000 miles on mine since I did it. The farm truck with the h and s chip seems to run about the same as mine except it did delete out all the codes. With my truck I run my chip in the the the fourth level have found that is where I get the best fuel mileage

I am really leaning towards a H &S Mini Max. Seams the simplicity and the ability to do the EGR delete.
Its sad that the EPA has messed with all the engines. Imagine the kind of mileage and power these newer engines could produce, with out all the emissions garbage. Then again, it took the EPA to get them to this point.
Its kind of embarrassing to have a diesel idling, and dripping water out the exhaust. Mine is every bit as rusty as a gas burner. :evil:

When all the emission junk is off them, they can idle with no problem. They told us not to let ours idle when we bought it. Also, the 2011 don't have the urea to deal with.
Silver said:From what I've seen so far I'd sooner deal with the urea than the DPF. At least you can idle the urea engines. My Dodge would only regen until the filter was 60% plugged, and I understand from talking to other folks this is the norm. A 60% plugged exhaust system does not sound like a good way to run in my opinion.

I have only put about 3000 miles on mine, and I don't think it has ever done the regen, anyway no that I know of.

It is true that they seldom regen if they are driven mostly at operating temp. If they spend much time idling or are run for shorter periods of time where they don't get a chance to be driven any significant distance they are a problem. For example, when calving I make many trips to the calving pen every day / night, the distance is about 1.5 miles. When I had this truck I could often be found driving aimlessly around the community at 2 AM waiting for the dang thing to regen when all I wanted was to go to sleep. So I applied the same logic to my truck as I do for the cows that are ornery, cost me excessive sleep, and are a pain in the butt..... it got culled :wink:
I think it would generally be a good enough setup in certain circumstances, but I need a truck to run properly under all circumstances.
