Howdy from Dallas! (yes I'm an Aggie, yes it's a cult)
I am the proud owner of a granite 2016 Lonestar edition EcoD as of last night! I will need the truck for work purposes and have been waiting for the right 2016 to pop up for sale for a month or so now. I have always wanted someone to put a damn diesel engine in a half-ton and when the EcoD rolled out I knew I would eventually have one. That said, I have been prowling the internet ever since they came out and knew that I would want mine deleted if/when I got one because it appears most problems with these trucks is scr/egr/dpf/wtf related. I figured since I will be deleting soon, I would go ahead and introduce myself so that my first post wouldn't be a build thread!
The plan is to go GDE off road tune (no extra options, none appealed to me), 3" turbo-back to the duals, and do the CFT aluminum intake tube as soon as possible (title says tomorrow because it was catchy but in reality, its more like next month )
IF YOU HAVE ANY TIPS/TRICKS/INSTRUCTIONS ON DELETING PLEASE SEND THEM MY WAY! I could use all the help I can get, I will be doing everything myself seeing as none of the diesel shops around town have touched ecodiesels yet.
Are there any parts other than the GDE tune and exhuast that I will need to completely delete everything? For example, do I need any kind of monitoring device (edge?) to do the delete? It appears I may need a "Stage 2 Eco Diesel EGR FULL DELETE" from CFT but I am not for sure if that is 100% needed or not to do the install... again any tips/tricks would be greatly appreciated, also if you have a link to a step-by step video or something that would be awesome.
Oh, and here's the truck! Thanks and Gig 'Em!
