Well never heard of that, but if thats an option- works for me. I am doing good now as far as no problems with the truck after I mounted the pressure sensors and egt probes in the exhaust. I am actually kinda shocked I might have done something right. 2 days and going strong. Taking that emissions off really made a difference in perfomance- hopefully it stays this way.

Man ill tell you i am very impressed with them. I haven't done much muddin with them but on the road they are very quiet for a mudder and handle extremely well. They said at 4 wheel parts I should get 40k out of them if they are balanced every 6k but they feel too soft for 40k tires- we'll see.

Excellent news on the DPF delete, FireMedic. How soon before you release the "FireMedic DPF Delete Kit"? ..for off-road purposes only of course. [8D]

If this works out, I think I could produce them, and for a hell of alot less money than the other two. I think if it doesn't throw a code within a week, it should be fine, what do you guys think?

Firemedic. So all you have now is a straight pipe, with the probes tapped into the pipe? And no Codes?

Ok update, all the sensors are tapped into the new exhaust along with the two pressure lines. After driving about 20 min the catalyst full 90% slowly dropped down to 80% then to 70% then a beep and back to system ok. For two days no problems and like h&s and badptrucks claim they make a code regardless- I haven't seen a code yet. Hopefully this is it. And by the way- my neighbors son is an engineer for cummins just found that out- he says the dealer can turn all this emissions crap off with their computer after I had already gone through this. I don't know if this is true because I am good friends with my dealership and the techs say they can't- neighbors son says they wont do it for warranty issues.

Nope Watermelon got him a left over '06. He's got the trusty 5.9 just like most of us.
