Research on upgrades

[Pizza04]

Ok so I came up with a list of add-on upgrades. I wanted to post it here and get your thoughts. At a minimum I want to go turbo to muffler straight pipe and completely wipe out the EGR system. Basically delete and tune. But I’m finding all of these cool products out there. I’m not loaded$$$. I’ll post a picture of the list it’s basically some websites. CFT performance seems pretty legit. Items with an asterisk are what I want to add on and items with a heart are minimum add on. I guess I’m trying to figure out if I’m better off going all out or not, also wish I had a good tuner in Nebraska?

Cac delete is a complete waste of money if you plan on a aftermarket intercooler and pipes eventually. The flo pro race pipes work decent and are aluminized. The cft exhaust is T304 with a flex joint in it. Both kits leave the stock muffler and tailpipes in place. Just a fyi cft performance is basically a one man show so not everything well ship immediately but Josh tries to ship quickly.

CAC delete may not be valid on your truck depending on the year. I have a 2017 and they removed that muffler tube on the hot side so it’s not necessary. That was straight from CFT as well

I have 700 miles on my truck. I have already bought my turbo back. Buzzken. Stainless steel with flex joint.

I am using a programmer I have never read about in a Dodge forum as well. I have German diesels with deletes, and I am going with these suppliers for my Ecodiesel.

Do you have a good website for me to check out?

Will the programmer you found work with the ecu? I hear you have to pull it (the ecu) and have it reflashed to update any tunes?

It is a Canadian company. Try chiptuning.ca. Yes the ecu must be bench tuned.

The bench tuning equipment is $$$$. Unless you have a lot of money, or you do it for a living, buying that equipment is probably not worth the money.

This is true. Thank goodness for the United States Postal Service!

I can't comment on the tune for the ecodiesel because I have yet to do it. The pipes are hanging in the garage. I don't even know how well they fit.
I can tell you the tunes on my German Diesels are spot on. I was trying to wait for the first oil change before tearing into it. Past actions would indicate differently. I will give you more info after.

I installed the CFT catch can in my 17 ED and it keeps tripping a code.
