Can anyone who is fully deleted provide some insight. I’m stock right now but would like to know what kind of change you noticed in the smell of exhaust after fully deleting. As far as I understand, the exhaust isn’t much louder, which is what I would like. Not looking to be loud.

At a minimum I will be deleting the EGR, but because my work commute is short My rationale is that it would be healthier for the engine if I fully deleted.

My experience with modern deleted diesels are they have a sharp stinging smell that’s bad and burns your eyes and nose really bad , much worse than old school diesels .. Old school diesels just have a heavy diesel smell ..

The best way I have seen to handle these issues are with a catalytic Convertor, It’ll Clean up the exhaust really good, very little smell or smoke after installation ...

BTW Magnaflo manufacturers after market replacement catalytic Convertors for older diesels that are easily adaptable with just a little welding.. Around 600.00
