Benefits of DPF Delete - Why GMC DPF Removal is Worth It
Boost Fuel Efficiency
Removing the DPF dramatically reduces exhaust backpressure, allowing fuel to flow more freely. This can raise your fuel economy from around 13-14 mpg up to an impressive 18-19 mpg. More miles per gallon means more savings—and more driving freedom.
Reduce Maintenance Needs
The standard DPF requires regular cleaning and replacement to stay functional. With DPF delete, you eliminate these extra maintenance tasks and cut down on repair costs.
Increase Power and Torque
DPF removal frees up your engine to breathe and boosts overall power output, especially noticeable in off-road driving. With this kit, you’ll feel the added torque and responsiveness, giving you a true performance upgrade that you can feel with every mile.
Installation Guide - How to Install the Duramax DPF Delete Kit
Tools and Preparation
Installing this DPF delete kit requires only basic hand tools, making it perfect for a DIY setup in your garage. An automotive lift will make the job quicker, but it’s not required. If your model has a shorter wheelbase, you might need to make a few cuts for the perfect fit.
Installation Steps
1. Gather all necessary tools, and position your truck in a safe working environment.
2. Attach the DPF delete kit to the exhaust system and secure it in place.
3. Use the provided clamps and hardware to complete the connection.
4. You may need to re-use some factory hardware depending on your model, so keep it handy for a secure fit.
Important Note: Tuning Requirement
Since removing the DPF changes the emissions system, you’ll need a DPF-delete-compatible tuner to prevent any check engine lights or diagnostic codes. This tuning step ensures smooth operation and full compatibility with your engine’s system.
Cost and Legality - What to Know About the Duramax DPF Delete Kit
Cost Details
The DPF delete process involves the kit itself, any tuning tools you might need, and possibly professional installation if you prefer. Although there’s an upfront cost, the long-term savings from improved fuel economy and fewer repairs quickly add up.
Legality Considerations
Depending on your location, DPF delete may not be legal for on-road use, as emissions regulations vary. Check your local and state laws before proceeding to ensure compliance. We recommend using this kit in off-road or racing environments to stay within legal bounds.
