What equipment would you recommend for a full delete, Shiner? 2015 model year if that matters. I've only had my truck tested once since new vehicles are exempt for the first few years in our area, and the guy didn't do much sleuthing. He did throw a mirror under it real quick but I'm not sure if he would have noticed anything. Beyond that he just plugged into the truck's port and had me run up the RPM's a few times. I would just run a stock tune, I'm not looking to change anything from a performance standpoint.
wowens, I'm not interested in a HD gasser. They're turds in the western mountains at elevation, and I'm hooked on diesels going forward.
Flo-Pro exhaust Either a 5 inch or 4 inch of your choice. Both sound a little different with the 5 inch being a little louder. There really isn't much of a difference performance wise. I would go with a stainless if you live in the snow. I have a 5 inch and originally had the Flo-pro muffler, but wanted something quieter so I purchases a Donaldson M100580 from work. It reduced the sound level dramatically over the Flo-pro muffler.
You don't have to delete the EGR since it will be turned off, but if you do then i would recommend an FTE resonator because the drone after removing the EGR will be horrendous. I have a 17". It will cut some top end power.
As far as tuning, many people have left the game or will only tune it if you come to their shop. I use EFI live software from two different tuners with and Edge CTS2 monitor. EZLynk is just as good and it has the option to come with a monitor so you can have a gauge setup so you don't have to buy an Edge. There may be some reputable tuners in you area so you may want to Google it to see what is your area.
I went with a 4" on mine and the drone isn't too bad, even pulling the camper. I did the full package and don't regret it a bit. Truck is night and day different. Thanks to Shiner recommending a person, I have the MM3 with custom tunes. I also did the S&B intake and am about to do the CCV delete. Mine also throws no codes, but we don't have emission testing here in Florida. Kind of funny, I travel to Georgia quite a bit, hopefully I don't get pulled. I also don't get any excitement out of rolling coal. With my tunes, even turned up, it's just a puff when I go to pass someone.
