Aero wouldn't help any with the dpf. I say drop in filter and maybe some gauges. Or some running lights. Or a big polished exhaust tip. ect ect ect

If you are going to go drop in check out the super stock filters that afe is offering, the look really good.

I might just cut the muffler off. I just want it to sound like a diesel, my truck is quiet. I was also thinking about a billet grille. Would a drop in be as good as the CAI?

After reading a bit about it the drop in should be fine until you start modding.

There are high flow exhaust kits out there, but will void the warrenty. So far I don't think you can run without your dpf.

loose the muffler, yank the silencer ring. . .kinda difficult on the 6.7's I hear, and either do a drop in or AFE and be done with it
