6.7 Powerstroke DPF Delete: Costs, HP Gains & Install Steps

How Much Does a 6.7 Powerstroke Delete Kit Cost by Model Year?

Your model year sets the price. The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2011-2012 is priced from $1,884.00 to $2,982.00. The 2013-2014 bundle runs $1,884.00 to $2,982.00. The 2015-2016 bundle runs $1,834.00 to $2,957.00. The 2017-2019 bundle runs $1,934.00 to $3,024.00. The 2020-2022 bundle runs $2,944.00 to $3,619.00. The 2023-2026 bundle runs $4,134.00 to $4,484.00.

Find your year, read across, and that's your number. No averaging, no guessing, no "it depends" from a guy who won't commit. Here's the thing — that bracket isn't a preference you get to pick, it's a fit, and the rest of this guide is about making sure you land in the right one before a single part shows up at your door.

Reading the model year off your own truck

Don't trust memory, and don't trust whatever the last owner told you. Check the model year on the truck itself before you pick a row. Get that one detail wrong and every part after it is wrong too, which is a miserable way to burn a weekend in the shop.

It sounds obvious. It's also the mistake that costs the most to undo, and the budget section further down explains exactly why.

One habit saves you some scrolling later. The rest of this guide calls each bracket by its row in that table, counting down from the oldest at the top, so keep your row number in your head.

What changes in the 2023-2026 bracket

If your truck lands in the newest row of that table, slow down here. This isn't plug-and-play.^[1] Read the laptop and ECM section further down before you commit to a date for the build, because the newest trucks put a step in front of the wrenches that the older ones never asked for.

What the price range on each bundle covers

Every row in that table is a range, not a sticker. Read it that way. Plan to the top of the range until every choice in the parts list below is settled, then work your way back down as you lock things in. Bang for your buck starts with knowing the real number, not the hopeful one.

Read the years before the dollars, too. A price that looks familiar is no proof of fit, so match your year first and let the price follow.

Will the Bundle Fit Your Trim, Cab and Output?

The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2011-2012 is built for 2011 and 2012 trucks. The 2013-2014 bundle is built for 2013 and 2014 trucks. It fits all pickup trims, cab and box lengths, but won't fit Cab & Chassis trucks, so call (888) 830-2588 for those.^[2] The 2015-2016 bundle goes on 2015 and 2016 trucks. The 2023-2026 bundle fits 2023 through 2026 trucks.

Model year gets you to the right row. Trim, cab and output come next, and they're where a lot of guys get caught out. The common assumption is that a 6.7 is a 6.7, whatever it happens to be bolted into. Not quite.

Pickup trims, box lengths and duallys

The good news? If you run a pickup, this part is usually painless. Fits 2015 and 2016 Ford 6.7L Powerstroke F-250, F-350, and F-450 pickups, all trims including duallys.^[3]

Running a dually from the fourth row of the price table? Fits all pickup trims and box lengths including dually trucks, but won't fit Cab & Chassis trucks — call (888) 830-2588 for those.^[4] That's one less thing to measure in the driveway, and one less thing to second-guess once the truck is up on stands.

If you drive a Cab & Chassis

This is where the brackets part ways, so read your own row slowly. Start with the oldest bracket. This fits the 2011 and 2012 6.7L Powerstroke F-250, F-350, and F-450 in all pickup trims and box lengths, but not Cab & Chassis without modification.^[5] The last words of that line are doing a lot of work, and any modification is a conversation to have before you spend a dime, not after.

The second row got its answer up top, and the third row gets a short one too. Won't fit Cab & Chassis — call (888) 830-2588 for those.^[3] On the 2017-2019 bundle, chassis owners should read this twice: Fits all pickup trims and box lengths including dually trucks, but won't fit Cab & Chassis trucks — call (888) 830-2588 for those. Newer chassis truck? Keep reading.

Standard Output or High Output on 2023-2026 trucks

Output is the last box to tick, and on the newest trucks it's an easy one. The 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle is the complete kit for pulling the factory emissions system off your 2023–2026 6.7L Powerstroke, whether you run a Standard Output, High Output, or Cab & Chassis truck.^[1] That's one decision you don't have to sweat.

Still got a cab question on your truck? Hold that thought. The buying section at the bottom has the number to call, and a quick conversation beats a guess every time.

What Do You Get in the Box for the Money?

The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2011-2012 includes a Complete EGR Delete Kit. It's the complete kit: tuner, delete pipe, and EGR delete in one order.^[5] The 2013-2014 bundle includes the delete tune. The 2020-2022 bundle includes a 4” Rust Resistant DPF & CAT Delete Pipe, with an optional 5" full exhaust upgrade. The 2023-2026 bundle includes the Required Down pipe.

Let's break it down, part by part. The details shift from bracket to bracket, and the details are exactly what you're paying for.

The tuner

Think of the tuner as the foreman on this job. Every other part in the box waits on it, and nothing else gets to work until it does.

A lot of guys assume the pipe is the whole job. Here's the thing — a pipe alone is not a kit. If yours is an older truck, the next section walks through the tuner and its power levels bracket by bracket.

Truck in the bracket just before the newest? Everything you need comes in the box: an EZ Lynk tuner with all required accessories and a rotary Shift-on-the-Fly switch, a 4" rust-resistant DPF & CAT delete pipe (or upgrade to a 5" full exhaust), and a complete EGR delete kit.^[6]

And on the newest trucks? The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2023-2026 includes a Switch On The Fly Switch for changing power levels.

The delete pipe and the down pipe

This is the part everyone pictures when they hear the word delete. The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2017-2019 includes a 4” Rust Resistant DPF & CAT Delete Pipe. Rust resistant is exactly what you want on a rig that spends its weekends in mud and creek crossings. The 2013-2014 bundle includes a 4” Rust Resistant DPF & CAT Delete Pipe as well.

The 2023-2026 bundle includes a 4” Rust Resistant DPF & CAT Delete Pipe too. Pair that with the down pipe from the list up top. That's the kind of detail you want settled before the truck is on stands, not halfway through the job.

The EGR delete kit and the optional exhaust

The EGR side is the half of the job people forget to price. The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2023-2026 includes a Complete EGR Delete Kit. The 2013-2014 bundle includes a Complete EGR Delete Kit too. Don't let anyone talk you into doing half the job.

In the oldest bracket, here's how the pieces fit together. A DPF/CAT delete pipe bolts in where the original sat, and the EGR delete kit seals the openings and reroutes exhaust out the pipe.^[5]

Then there's the optional stuff, and in the third row of the price table it looks like this. You can also add a 5" full exhaust upgrade by P1 Race Pipes and an optional muffler.^[3] Optional means exactly that: a choice you make, not a part that turns up whether you wanted it or not.

Treat any upgrade as its own line in the budget, separate from the base box. That way the number you plan around is the number you actually spend.

Which Tuner and Power Levels Come With a 2011-2019 Bundle?

The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2017-2019 includes a BullyDog BDX Delete Tuner or an EZ Lynk Delete Tuner. The EZ Lynk runs Stock, +50, +100, +150, and +200HP.^[4] The 2015-2016 bundle includes a BullyDog BDX Delete Tuner or an EZ Lynk Delete Tuner too. The EZ Lynk Package swaps in an EZ Lynk tuner with the same delete pipe and EGR kit.^[3]

Here's where the older trucks get fun. Your bracket is set, but the power side is still yours to shape, and it's the choice that decides how the truck feels on the dyno.

The EZ Lynk Package on each 2011-2019 bundle

Pick your tuner with care. It's the part of this job you don't want to second-guess after it ships.

In the third row of the price table, the setup looks like this. Power levels run through a shift-on-the-fly switch.^[3] Transmission tuning is included, with relearn instructions emailed to you.^[3]

Second-row truck in the shop? You get a BDX Delete Tuner with all required accessories or an EZ-Lynk (your choice), a 4" rust-resistant DPF and CAT delete pipe, and the complete EGR delete kit, with an optional 5" P1 Race Pipes exhaust and muffler.^[2] Make that pick on purpose, because it sets the power steps you'll be living with.

Own a truck from the oldest bracket? Flip back to the box section for your parts list. Then settle the tuner question by phone before you order.

The EZ Lynk power ladder

In the third row of the price table, here's how the ladder reads. The EZ Lynk runs Stock, +50, +100, +150, and +200 HP.^[3] Start at stock while you're dialing the truck in, then step it up when it's time to pull.

That top step is where this workhorse really wakes up, and you'll feel it the first time the truck digs in on a sled. Think of the switch as a gear selector for power. Want a different level between rounds? You reach for the switch, not the laptop bag, and you're back in line before the next truck hooks up.

Second-row owners, read your own steps before you plan a weekend around a number. EZ-Lynk runs Stock, +30HP, +50HP, +100HP, and +200HP.^[2] Never borrow another row's steps; go by the ones that belong to your truck.

Running without the switch

Not every build needs the switch wired in. You are NOT required to install the SOTF switch if you are not wanting to use the shifting on the fly feature. On the BDX products, if you do not install the SOTF switch, you will be defaulted on the FIRST power level. On the EZ Lynk tuner, skip the switch and you will be defaulted on the first power level, though you have the option to select single horsepower tunes off the EZ Lynk if desired.

So ask yourself how you'll actually run the truck. Want to swap levels between rounds? Wire it in. Running a BDX and chasing anything past the first step? Wire it in, no exceptions. Planning to sit on one EZ Lynk tune all weekend? Pick that tune before the switch stays in the box.

Why Do 2020-2026 Bundles Need a Laptop and an ECM Read?

The 2020-2022 Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle fits 2020-2022 trucks. A laptop is required to read the ECM before your custom tune is built; this isn't plug-and-play because of the newer Ford security systems, and we need 3–5 business days to process the tune after we get your ECM read.^[6] TCM transmission tuning is included for 2023–2026 models.^[1] The tune runs Stock, +40HP, +80HP, +120HP and +150HP.^[1]

Old-school guys hate this part. We get it. Nobody bought a diesel to babysit a laptop, but on these years the computer comes before the wrenches, and fighting that only costs you time.

Why a laptop and an ECM read come first

Got a truck from the newest bracket in the shop? A laptop is required, because the new Ford security systems mean we need a read of the ECM before the delete tune can be created.^[1] After you submit that, our technicians build your custom tune, so allow 3–5 business days.^[1]

It's like getting fitted for a suit instead of pulling one off the rack. The fit is the whole point, and the fit takes a measurement first.

How long the custom tune takes

Plan the downtime around that wait, not around the day the box shows up. If the truck has an event on the calendar, work backward from the date and leave slack for the ECM read, the tune build and the shipping.

Nobody wants a truck parked on jack stands waiting on a file the night before a pull. Build the wait into the plan and it stops being a problem.

Power levels and the transmission relearn

Start with the bracket just before the newest, and read it twice. The tune carries five selectable power levels — Stock, +40, +80, +120, and +150 HP — with transmission tuning included; just run a transmission relearn before using the power tunes.^[6]

And the newest trucks? The tune carries five selectable power levels, Stock, +40HP, +80HP, +120HP, and +150HP, changeable in real time with the rotary switch.^[1]

Don't skip the relearn because you're itching to feel the top step. A little patience here pays off for the long haul.

How Much Work Is the Install Once the Kit Arrives?

The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2023-2026 includes the Required Down pipe. Custom delete tunes wipe the emissions programming from the computer, and then you remove the hardware.^[1] The 2011-2012 bundle includes a Complete EGR Delete Kit. No welding is required — the pipe bolts up with included hardware and the EGR kit is bolt-on.^[5] The 2017-2019 bundle includes a Complete EGR Delete Kit too.

Buckle up — this is the section where the truck actually goes up on stands. The good part is how little of it calls for anything you don't already have in the shop.

Tune first, hardware second

Order of operations is everything here. Get the tune sorted and confirmed before a single bolt comes loose. Pull parts on spec and hope the tune catches up, and you've got a truck parked on stands while you wait on it.

Bolting in the delete pipe and the EGR kit

On a third-row truck, the swap goes like this. The delete pipe bolts in place of the factory DPF and CAT, and the EGR kit seals off the original system and reroutes flow — no welding, bolts and clamps included.^[3]

If yours sits in the bracket just before the newest, here's your version. The delete pipe bolts in place of the factory units and the EGR kit seals the openings and reroutes exhaust flow — no welding required.^[6] No welder, and no begging a buddy who owns one.

Lay every piece out on the floor and match it against the parts list before you start. A few minutes on the floor beats a long afternoon on your back hunting for a clamp that was never missing.

Where to find the install videos

On a fourth-row truck, check your inbox before you check your toolbox. Install needs no welding: the DPF pipe uses included bolts and clamps, the EGR kit is bolt-on, and installation videos are emailed to you.^[4]

Watch them all the way through once before you pick up a wrench. And if you're wiring in a power-level switch on an older truck, go back to the tuner section first, because that's where the switch decision lives.

What Else Should You Budget for Beyond the Kit Price?

The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2017-2019 includes a Complete EGR Delete Kit. Tuners are built to order and not refundable, exhaust and delete pipes are final sale, and the EGR kit is returnable unused within 30 days with a $30 restocking fee.^[4] The 2020-2022 bundle fits 2020 through 2022 trucks. Standard shipping runs 4–8 business days; express isn't available on this product.^[6]

The kit price is the big number. It isn't the only one, and the smaller ones are where a plan quietly falls apart.

What you can and cannot send back

Read the return terms before you pay, not after. Own a truck from the oldest bracket? The tuners are built to order and non-refundable, exhaust and pipes are final sale, and the EGR kit is returnable unused within 30 days.^[5]

Translation: confirm your bracket, your cab and your output before you commit. A tuner built for the wrong truck is an expensive paperweight, and nobody wants one of those on the shelf.

Shipping and tune lead time

Add the shipping window to the tune window from the laptop section, and plan the build around the total. If there's an event on the calendar, give yourself slack on both. Rushing the last week is how bolts get cross-threaded and wires get pinched.

Optional exhaust and muffler add-ons

Now the fun money, if your truck sits in the newest bracket. An optional muffler is available if you want it quieter.^[1]

And if an upgrade back in the box section caught your eye, give it its own line in the budget. Optional parts are where a budget quietly grows, so decide on them early and decide on them once.

What Do You Get Back in Fuel Economy and Fewer Warning Lights?

The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2011-2012 fits 2011 and 2012 trucks. Most owners report a 5 MPG gain on average and fewer trips to the body shop.^[5] The 2023-2026 bundle covers 2023 through 2026 trucks. Once the delete tune is installed, your truck no longer throws "See Dealer" codes, check engine lights, "Exhaust system service required" alerts, limp mode codes, or other emissions-related diagnostics.^[1]

Here's the payoff side of the ledger. It's not just about what you spend; it's about what you stop putting up with.

Fuel economy after the delete

On a fourth-row truck, the payoff looks like this. Deleting the factory system that's been suffocating your diesel brings a 5 MPG increase on average.^[4]

Now the newest bracket. Most owners see around a 5 MPG gain and far fewer trips to the shop.^[1] Treat that as an average owners report, not a promise for your specific truck, and you'll never be disappointed by it.

The warning messages that stop

Now look at the bracket just before the newest. Once the delete tune is installed, the emission-related codes stop for good — "See Dealer" codes, check engine lights, "Exhaust system service required" alerts, and limp mode all go away.^[6]

No more wrenching on a truck that nags you from the dash every time you fire it up. And the power side? That lives back in the tuner sections above, so there's no need to repeat it here.

Which Bundle Should You Buy for Your Model Year?

The Ford 6.7 Powerstroke Full Delete Bundle for 2011-2012 goes on 2011 and 2012 trucks. The 2013-2014 bundle fits 2013 and 2014 trucks. The 2015-2016 bundle fits 2015 and 2016 trucks. The 2017-2019 bundle fits 2017, 2018 and 2019 trucks. The 2020-2022 bundle fits 2020, 2021 and 2022 trucks. The 2023-2026 bundle fits 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026 trucks. Call (888) 830-2588 with any questions.^[6]

Your model year picks the bundle, but on the older trucks the cab gets the first look. On a 2011-2012 truck, start with the cab: This fits the 2011 and 2012 6.7L Powerstroke F-250, F-350, and F-450 in all pickup trims and box lengths, but not Cab & Chassis without modification. On a 2013-2014 truck, same drill: It fits all pickup trims, cab and box lengths, but won't fit Cab & Chassis trucks, so call (888) 830-2588 for those. On a 2015-2016 truck, the answer is short: Won't fit Cab & Chassis — call (888) 830-2588 for those. On a 2017-2019 truck, check the cab first: Fits all pickup trims and box lengths including dually trucks, but won't fit Cab & Chassis trucks — call (888) 830-2588 for those. The rest of this section is for the ones that need a second look.

Decide by model year first

Don't overthink this part. Find your year in the table at the top, and that's your bundle. If someone tries to talk you into a bundle from the wrong bracket because it's cheaper, walk away.

Then decide by tuner on 2011-2019 trucks

On the older trucks, the second decision is the tuner. On a 2017, 2018 or 2019 truck, our pick is the EZ Lynk Package. Same call on a 2015 or 2016 truck: take the EZ Lynk Package.

Further back, the answer holds. On a 2013 or 2014, we'd take the EZ-Lynk over the BDX. On a 2011 or 2012, we'd go EZ Lynk too.

The reason is the ladder. It starts at stock and keeps climbing, and on a sled-pull truck that headroom is exactly what you want to have in your pocket.

When to call before ordering

Pick up the phone before you pay if your truck's year isn't on any of these lists. The same goes for any Cab & Chassis truck where you want a straight answer on fit. A quick call beats a return you can't make.
