After doing a short road trip today from my home town st. Augustine to my new town of work I thought I would give a review of my deleted 2015 f250
I went back home for the weekend to install a afe delete pipe, edge insight, sct x4 and egr blocker plates all from NoLimitFabrications.
Taking the dpf out took my father and I about 2 1/2 hours. It was quite a simple process but unhooking all the sponsors took a while since there was what felt like a hundred. We used two jack stands and unbolted the hangers, lowered the rear of the dpf and was able to slide it back and out.
The egr was simple, a swivel and a foot long extension should have it installed in about 15 minutes.
The tuning was quite simple if you follow mikes instructions. I took out the dpf first and then loaded the tunes/file and when I turned the key to the on position it threw up some codes relating to the dpf being gone. I had a good laugh because of the million sensors that the truck was looking for but it noticed they were disconnected. Anyways, once everything was loaded, it took care of all the trouble codes relating to the dpf and I was good to go
The truck does sound good with the stock exhaust tip/section, it has a low rumble but goes to a jet turbine pssshing like sound when in idle which I think is related to the stock exhaust tip/section. I got the same sound in my duramax with the stock down pipe but it was caused by restriction which I think is going on with the 250. No worries, I got a mbrp turn down coming next week.
What I was getting to was that I ran on the performance tune #3 for around 200 miles today with no problems. The truck shifted way better than stock and definitely would haul when I needed to. I averaged 19.4 mpg's and yes I hand calculated it based apron filing up when I left and filling up when I got to Orlando.
Just wanted to share my experience and hope others have the same as me!!!
