Here are some tips from what I learned when removing the DPF from my 2011 Ford F250 6.7l diesel (for racing, of course).

Jon Ganzer, thanks so much for this video. I did my 14’ 6.7 about a month ago, and your video really made it easy. The biggest takeaway was not fighting with the welded bolts. You also do a great job with identifying sensors. With that, my 14’ had at least 10. That was by far the hardest part. That or getting the downpipe flange secured. That was a challenge with the tools I have. Great video though. Thanks again!

Hi Ryan, I did delete the EGR and install an AFE airbox. As far as tuners, I already owned the SCT, and had tuned my 2005 6.0 with it. I was able to re-install the stock tune on the 2005 before I sold it, update the SCT to current specs (there was something like 168 updates available, which I was able to download for free from SCT) which made it compatible with the 2011 6.7. For free. So now I had an interface with the truck, and I just needed tunes in a file format that the SCT device would understand. I called a couple of places, but Bill at Sinister Diesel seemed to really know what he was talking about. They offer 1 tune for $150, four for $500. The "Load First" tune is included at no charge. These are just software (files) that I retreived via email, and then used the SCT software to load on to the SCT device. Long answer, but the important thing is that I don't have any experience with the Spartan. I would say the four tunes (Tow, Street, Performance, and Extreme) are, or follow closely, Bully Dog tunes, which are just re-sold by Sinister. I've installed each. If you look at dyno charts for these tunes, (available on line) the first three make more power and torque above 2,000 rpm, but the differences are marginal and the profiles are almost identical. Each of those increased my fuel mileage from around 14.5 to around 16. Disappointing. I was a little concerned about the Extreme tune (I am, after all, an ex-6.0 owner) but when I saw that the Bully Dog Extreme torque profile was just a "Street" tune from H&S, whose Extreme profile adds another 150 foot pounds, I figured it was safe. The Bully Dog Extreme torque curve does not follow the profile of the other three tunes, in that it delivers a LOT more torque a LOT earlier (like 100 ft/lbs more at 1500 rpm). At first, I was a little careful with the throttle - and in the first couple hundred miles, I was actually averaging over 21 mpg! At this point (about 700 miles on this tune now) I have reverted to my normal get-out-of-my-way driving style and the mileage has settled around 20. That is really a GOOD thing.

It took me about four hours, but I was not in a rush and I was not familiar with all of the connections (which is why I made this video). The truck makes a LOT more power in Extreme tune, and the fuel mileage has increased about 30%. It also puffs black smoke - not a lot - at more than 1/3 throttle, which I don't like.

Ah, right. The program (tune) is actually written to the trucks computer, so even if the battery died or you completely disconnected the computer, the tune does not go away. It's just like your home computer - you can unplug it, and disconnect everything, but when you connect it all back up and plug it in, everything is still there. To get the latest info, do a Google search for "diesel truck tuner" or "diesel truck tunes".

This was a fantastic video, great job! I just bought a 2016 and have been researching ways to do a delete. I have the same motor but it's on a 350 dually.

Well, this stuff is recreation for me, so I take my time with it, slow and careful. Do it once, do it right and all that stuff. Probably a good six hour Saturday. The thing you notice most is the power differences in all the different tunes. Once everything's installed its easy to change the tune, so I probably tried 5 or 6. The crazy power ones are fun but make me worry more about the drive line and engine life, they're that strong.

I apologize for asking something that you probably already explained but I want to be sure, if my 2014 has never had a tune or any remote tuner plugged into it, do I still need to go through the first part ie connect a tuner, make sure it's stock tune etc.? Basically just wondering if I can simply remove DPF and replace with pipe like you did without the programming part?
@jonganzer7478 Жыл бұрын
Hi Eric, Sorry for the late reply (that's an understatement!) but thought I would respond in case anyone else has the same question. You CAN just replace the pipe, but with all those connectors disconnected, you will get multiple DTCs (diagnostic trouble codes, or check engine lights) and the ECU (engine control unit) will make many adjustments to compensate for the missing sensors. Not helpful.
