2018-2019 Ford Powerstroke 3.0L Diesel Parts & Delete Kits
The 3.0L Powerstroke might be Ford's smallest diesel option, but it's a capable engine that responds well to the right modifications. Whether you're running a Super Duty or looking to maximize efficiency, we've got the parts that work.
What You'll Find Here
This collection focuses on the core upgrades your 2018-2019 3.0L needs: DPF (diesel particulate filter) and CAT (catalytic converter) delete pipes, EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) delete kits, and tuning solutions like the EZ Lynk Auto Agent. These are the foundation pieces that eliminate restrictive emissions equipment and let your engine breathe.
We stock individual parts so you can build exactly what you need, plus complete delete bundles if you want everything at once. The EZ Lynk tuner is a must-have—it's the brain that tells your truck how to run after you've removed the hardware.
Popular Builds for the 3.0L
Most owners pair a DPF/CAT delete pipe with an EGR delete and the EZ Lynk Auto Agent 3 tuner. This combo addresses the three biggest restrictions and delivers noticeable gains in throttle response and economy. Some add a dash cam like the VIDEODASH+ to document the difference.
If you're modifying a different Ford diesel, check out our 6.7L Powerstroke delete kits or Ford diesel tuning solutions.
Next Steps
Read the product descriptions carefully—some kits require tuning support, and installation difficulty varies. If you're new to deletes, start with understanding the difference between a delete pipe (hardware) and a delete tune (software). Both matter. Add your parts to the cart, and we'll get them shipped fast.
Can I use a 3.0L delete kit on a 6.7L Powerstroke?
No. The 3.0L and 6.7L engines have different layouts, bolt patterns, and tuning requirements. Parts are engine-specific. Check your VIN or owner's manual to confirm displacement, then order the right kit.
Do I need both a DPF delete and an EGR delete?
Most owners do both for the best results. The DPF delete removes backpressure from the exhaust system, while the EGR delete removes recirculated exhaust gases that reduce efficiency. Together they're more effective than either alone.
Will these parts trigger a check engine light?
Without a tune, yes. The EZ Lynk tuner reads and clears diagnostic codes, then reprograms your PCM (powertrain control module) to recognize the deleted emissions equipment. This is why tuning is essential—it's not optional.
How long does 3.0L delete installation take?
DPF and CAT deletes typically take 2-4 hours with basic tools. EGR deletes are more involved, often 4-6 hours depending on your mechanical skill. Tuning the EZ Lynk takes 15-30 minutes once hardware is done. Budget a weekend if you're doing it yourself.
Are these parts compatible with 2018 and 2019 models?
Yes. Our 2018-2019 3.0L kits work across both model years. Some products extend to 2020, so always check the product listing for exact year coverage before ordering.
What's the difference between the EZ Lynk Auto Agent and the tuner?
The Auto Agent is a complete package with lifetime support and includes the tuner software. If you're buying standalone, you're getting the tuner itself. For most owners, the Auto Agent is the better value because you get updates and customer support forever.
Can I revert to stock if I need to?
If you kept your original DPF, EGR, and CAT components, you can reinstall them. The EZ Lynk tuner can also revert to stock tune, though some tuning support may be required. Plan ahead if resale value matters to you.
