Kioti Tractor Tuning

If you don't want all the tier 4 emissions crap, then get rid of the new stuff and get an older tractor.

Dilly Dilly!

I say, run what have or get rid of it.
If you need to modify it, then obviously, it is not the right machine for you.
If you can make it a better machine, please forward the information to Kioti so they can correct it!

Being able to delete the EGR and DPF once the tractor is out of warranty is a big thing. The last time my Dodge Ram with the Cummins diesel was in the shop they replaced the DPF and something in the DEF system (part of a recall). Service guy said that parts alone listed at $7K. At least I did not have to directly pay for it. If I keep the truck past 100K miles it will be deleted at the first sign of trouble.

Not everyone agrees with that statement. Including myself. That's why there is a large and growing AG tuning aftermarket.

I don't want an old tractor. I also don't want the EPA regulations to have me by the b@lls if there's ever an issue with the DPF filter. They are very expensive systems to replace.

Tuning for HP is a good option for guys that bought a smaller hp tractor in a frame size and want an upgrade for a much lower cost then selling your current tractor and buying a larger. Ie nx4510 vs nx6010.

DPF deleting would increase power, fuel economy, and remove the giant fire hazard from the engine bay for people like myself who purchase newer tractors for brush hogging.

Law breakers.... Modified emissions....
But.... Our country does not enforce the laws they make anyway.

I'm just stating the facts. Modifying the emissions system is against the law.
I know it is done all over the country. There really is no way to enforce this.

We are all aware that removing emission systems is illegal. But millions of people have removed them since the 70's when they started putting EGR systems in. If I own the machine, I will do what I please with it.

Jay walking, window tint, speeding a little, and many other laws people break daily. Plus I'm in Alberta, Canada. No EPA, and no one gives a crap about emission deleting. Deleted that crap off all my vehicles.

I'm sure many others would like that option as well.

I'm with you and others with the same thinking, Boss. A lot of us want newer tractors for their refinements over the years.............minus the expensive and problematic DPF baggage. :thumbsup:

The manufacturer spent all that time and money on development to comply with federal government.
Now some of us want to spend our time and money trying to eliminate the systems.

Yep, not everything our government bureaucrats impose on us is beneficial.
