This has nothing to do with the your black friday sale post but you seem to be very knowledgeable about the SFT tune. So here's my question: What if any are the disadvantages or risk involved with ordering the stage 1 tune WITH the EGR delete option? Any potential issues with the stock exhaust/cat system?

Thanks

I haven't run into any disadvantages.
The risk involved is the same as any tune. Warranty risks and dealer flashing over come to mind.
Not sure what you mean but I haven't head of any issues with the exhaust/cat system.

Thanks. I didn't think it would cause any issues but was concerned that the EGR delete might result in possible issues with SCR system by altering combustion chamber temperatures and such by no longer diluting the air and fuel mixture.

That leads me to another EGR delete question. Am I assuming correctly that SFK system prevents the EGR valve from opening via its software?

 

[John Jensen]

When you order you make the selection to turn off the EGR or leave it on. I believe the web site calls it EGR delete.

Hi John I'm new to the community as I just purchased a 2016 Ram Ecodiesel. Is this a tune that will work with an EGR delete kit? Or can you just unplug the EGR as I have read in other forums? I got one of the delete kits off of Ebay and I'd like to get rid of that system.

Yes, SFT has a tune for deleting. You can not just unplug the EGR and expect it to run without codes, etc.

I installed this SFT tune last week. The truck is awesome. It's still a small displacement diesel, but with addition of tune and the nifty 8 speed tranny, I fell in love with the truck again. I'm running stage 1 now, but have an appointment to drop her off and have a full 3" delete put on. Muffler shop guy recommends an 18-24" resonator to combat drone, he's going to stretch out exhaust tips so it should look and sound stockish. We don't have diesel emissions in Texas, but there's no need to poke the bear.

Did you get a better fuel mileage with the stage one and tranny tune combo?
Thanks

 

[GreesyTaco]

I haven't really driven it enough, when I do, I end up dogging on it to feel the power. I'm taking a good 300 mile trip next week and I'll know more. If it did lose mileage, I wouldn't care it drives so much better.

Bring some updates after your incoming trip, I’m curious on the fuel results from the SFT combo tune.
Thanks

I’m averaging 18-20 a tank with a leveling kit and 35’s. I have not recalibrated my speedometer so I’m probably in the 20-24 range but I’m trying to keeep miles off the truck to milk the warranty clock also those calculations were pulling a 3000# enclosed trailer for 50-100 miles of the tank

Its been a about 1200 miles, mileage is pretty much the same. It runs really, really well though. It doesn't drop down into 7th all the time like it used to. Gets up to speed much faster, the unusually long delay on a cold engine for throttle is almost gone completely. I have all the gear for the stage 2, just haven't been able to have truck down that long.
