I got rid of the DPF and the EGR. In other words about all of the emission controls. The EGR delete was about $300 and the tuner and straight pipe to get rid of the EGR was about $1200. With my tuner I have at least 30 different tunes. They range from no HP increase to 310 rear wheel increase, EGR DPF on or off. I use the 210 HP tow tune with DPF and EGR off. That tune gives me a little over 600 fly wheel HP and a little over 1100 pound feet of torque. I use it because it is a nice safe tune, The engine and transmission can easily handle the horse power and toque and it leaves all the Ford built in safe guards in place. The main reason I tuned my truck was I had 13% fuel in the oil and Ford couldn't help me. The Chevys don't have this problem, they have a 9th injector that Ford and Dodge don't have. If you have a Ford or Dodge and you have your oil checked you might be surprised at what you find. I was shocked. Where you find a problem is when you don't let the engine go through its complete regen cycle like has been talked about here. I didn't tune for more power but it is nice. People say you don't need that much power but I've never heard anybody say their truck had too much power.
