That is complete BS know guys that have 14 and 15s with the deletes doneTraveler said:I've read that my '14 Ram Diesel will go into limp mode if any of the emission devices are tampered with. Also, in warm weather it almost never does the "active regeneration" thing. When it's cold out, unless you're running down the hiway, it regenerates maybe a couple times a day. It definitely stinks and has low speed driveability issues when it starts the regen.
That's interesting to know. I wonder what the cost is and the effect on the warranty? The dealer deactivated my seatbelt buzzer, but the tire monitoring system is another screwed up PITA.Angus cowman said:That is complete BS know guys that have 14 and 15s with the deletes doneTraveler said:I've read that my '14 Ram Diesel will go into limp mode if any of the emission devices are tampered with.

The tuner reprograms the computer in the truck so the everything works as it should
Plus you can deactivate buzzers and systems that the dealer cant deactivate such as the seatbelt buzzer and the tire monitoring systems

Our diesel never goes for short distances.
Not sure of the cost as for warranty it depends on how good of a service manager you have my local dodge mechanic says as long as I bring it to them he will warranty it I dont have much warranty left on mine it us 2 yrs old and has 65000 miles on it so will be out of warranty by then end of 2015Traveler said:That's interesting to know.

Diesel performance or DPF
As for needing the system with guages (H&S mini max) unless you have it tuned on the high setting or are using it as a race truck or hotrodding you dont need the guages
Mileage on my truck was around 22mpg on the way home from the shop driving thru memphis
Can't answer all your questions for him but "here" is 185' to 230' abode see level. AC can answer the rest.Faster horses said:Angus cowman said:Went with H&S tuner XRT Pro race tuner ,H&S EGR delete and a flo max exhaust around $1800 thru amazon came from a company named

YOU might not need the gauges, but we know of several people who have had problems because they ran the turbo too hot and didn't have gauges to let them know. Ruined the engines on more than one outfitl
Interesting you are getting that good of mileage. Wish we were! I do know that closer to sea level you get better mileage. 22 mpg is the best I have heard of. What is your pickup again? One-ton, dually? Is it 4WD? What year? Gear ratio? Engine size? if you posted that info, I apologize for missing it. Thanks for the information. I'll pass it along.

brushkiller said:I've got a 08 dodge 6.7 that I deleted egr and soot cooker on ( right after warranty went out)because I got sick and tired of all the darn check engine lights coming on. I used a smarty jr tuner and I haven't had any issues with the tuner not working, but it doesn't delete all the codes though. As for mpg it increased about 1.5 mpg, but this truck hardly ever runs down an open road, always on ranch. On my fuel economy I went from 11mpg to 12.5. I run the tuner one notch above the economy mode. I'm very pleased with how the truck runs now (I didn't do all the deletes to make it a hot rod, just to stop going to dodge dealer to get a new egr valve).
