Will an EGR delete kit void my warranty?

Yes. Ford will deny warranty claims tied to deleted emissions equipment. That said, many owners delete specifically because they've already paid out-of-pocket for EGR cooler failures. Weigh the risk based on your truck's mileage and your plans to keep it.

Do I need to tune my truck after deleting the EGR?

Not always, but you should. A tune removes EGR-related fault codes and optimizes fueling for the modification. Without a tune, you'll trigger check engine lights and potentially run lean. A quality tune also prevents heat-soak issues that can crack heads.

Can I install an EGR delete myself?

Yes, if you're comfortable working around fuel lines and coolant. Most kits include everything you need. Budget 3-4 hours, have a coolant catch pan ready, and don't rush the fuel line disconnects. If you're unsure, take it to a diesel shop—the labor cost beats a $1,500 repair bill from a mistake.

What's the difference between a delete kit and just removing the EGR cooler?

A delete kit includes a bypass block or pass-through designed to seal off the EGR passages cleanly. Simply yanking the cooler leaves vacuum and coolant lines hanging, which causes leaks and codes. A proper kit handles all that.

Will deleting the EGR affect my gas mileage?

No—in fact, most owners see slightly better fuel economy because the engine runs cooler and more efficiently. You'll gain power too, which tempts harder acceleration, so how you drive matters more than the modification itself.

How often do 2023-2025 Powerstroke EGR coolers fail?

The 6.7L has a solid track record, but EGR cooler failures still happen, especially under boost or towing. It's one of the most common Powerstroke warranty claims. Deleting it eliminates the failure point entirely.

Are your parts emissions-legal?

Our kits are manufactured and sold for off-road or competition use only. Your local regulations determine legality. Check with your state's environmental agency before installation—some states allow deletions, others don't. We provide the hardware; you decide what's right for your situation.
