    Re: Not Deleting shorten Engine life?

    Can someone whom have already deleted & used a DPF delete pipe with a muffler - please post a pick or URL of what brand & design you went with.

    I'm getting more confused on what I actually need.
    I know I'm making this easy process - difficult.
    I tend to over think every thing.

    I would post the url of the delete kit I was looking at but it's not of a current vendor within the forum & I figured that was against the rules.

    @DDP : Do you stock / sell DPF delete pipe kits with muffler?
    Sorry @ work for a few hours & can't spend much time on the net searching.

    @Dude's Diesel Performance can hook you up with the right kit. And will be very comparable to any online price for parts of similar quality.

    I used just a delete pipe but my truck has a factory resonator/muffler at the rear axle.

    If you truck has one of those too then you probably won't need an additional muffler.

    Thank you in advance!

    My truck stayed in Regen for more than 100 miles the last time it Regenerated, only 7,000 miles on the truck so far.

    I was staying stock until I started having issues, I had issues, so I fixed it with help from DRD.

    I did the delete and I'm glad I got more than the one tune. My truck seems to prefer the 120 HP tune better than the rest and s gets better fuel mileage. I also went with the muffler and it has a nice sound and no drone. 17 Ram 3500 4x4 Aisin with the 4.10 gears!

    @ bigwhittie: What brand did you end up going with?

    It's hard finding a 4" DPF delete kit with a muffler .

    Some of these so called Reputable companies are absolutely crazy asking over $300 for their 4" DPF delete kits!

    I found through Ebay (Same quality of kit) for $130-$150.

    But still no muffler!

    I remember paying only $275 for my whole exhaust (4" Turbo back) on my 01 7.3L PSD. (MBRP w/Muffler)

    This may be a long response but I have spent the last year changing my exhaust set up to completely eliminate the drone while towing.

    When I first deleted my truck in 2017 I bought the delete race pipe and had that on my truck for about a week. It was loud and droned like crazy towing. I added a flo~pro 30" muffler. For ease of installation I measured 48" from the tail pipe and cut my race pipe there (in case I wanted to straight pipe my truck again for whatever reason). The flo~pro muffler helped quiet the truck around town but still droned pretty bad while towing. I removed the flo~pro and installed a 30" F.T.E. resonator which took care of the towing drone. The 30" F.T.E. fit perfectly where the flo~pro was. I was researching resonated mufflers and found the 4040xl aeroturbine. I had to also get another 48" S.S. 4" pipe and cut it to fit with the aeroturbine because that muffler is shorter than the flo~pro and F.T.E. resonator. The aeroturbine muffler by itself was just a little quieter than straight pipe. It didn't drone like the flo~pro but it was definatley louder than the flo~pro. I figured I would add the F.T.E. in front of the aeroturbine to eliminate the drone and quiet the truck. There really isn't a lot of room to put the F.T.E. up front by the down pipe. The 17" F.T.E. would be a better option if you are adding a muffler behind. I had to make a couple modifications to shorten the flanges on the F.T.E. This set up eliminated all of the drone and the truck sounds quiet in the cab, still sounds good outside.

    I would have left it straight piped but sometimes we have to make our better halves happy to ensure our happy life.

    Re: Not Deleting shorten Engine life?

    MC: Thank you for your reply.

    I have a bit of research to do - I as well will be spending a lot of the future summers towing after we purchase our new 5th Wheel.

    So I really don't want a lot of drone.

    But first the lovely (spoiled) daughter has to graduate PT school!

    This will free up a dump load truck of $$$$ - so the wife can pick out her favorite RV!

    Edit: I think - When the time comes I will go with one of the 4" delete kits - then purchase a 30" Upower diesel muffler & take it to a muffler shop & have them install the muffler in a appropriate spot & weld it all up!
    Then apply a few costs of (black) high heat paint to the system.
