Anyone ever "delete" the dpf on a tractor?

Cummins trucks don’t need chips. Once you tow heavy with one, you understand what real torque at low RPM is.

I agree. Mine is stock. The Cummins grunt is awesome for towing.

Wrong. Not at all. Not ever.

Really... You do pay Federal Income tax I presume.

I would delete this post against the odds of some nancy pants busybody wants to play nancy drew and tattle tale

Who would anyone tattle to? Shops get busted for doing that stuff; owners don’t.

I was under the impression that there was a 5 year warranty (per the EPA) on all emissions related components and hardware / software.

If I had one (I don't), I'd wait until the Federally mandated warranty expired and then to whatever blows your dress up.

You wear dresses?

Tampering with an federally mandated EPA device on a vehicle is a big fine. It doesn’t matter if the warranty is expired. The pollution control equipment stays on the vehicle for the life of the vehicle.

But I am not employed by the federal government, so again, you are wrong.

really, I'm sure he understands that. Pretty common knowledge today I'd say.

Only if you get caught, but then you already know that so your comment is moot anyway. If the OP wants to modify his unit, that is entirely between him and what he feels is acceptable and isn't for you (or me) to decide. I suspect you would do (or have done) the same thing in the past anyway. I'm not God and neither are you (despite the fact you think you are).... Not your (or my choice).

I'm done with this thread anyway. Have a nice day Mr. Dude

I never removed federally mandated pollution equipment. I would never encourage anyone to do so, either.
PA trucks have to be inspected and if we are stopped & weighed hauling hay or equipment, we can be checked for pollution device tampering during any routine stop. The resulting fines are life changing.
I don’t care if you want to break the law-that’s your personal choice, but when you say:
“If I had one (I don't), I'd wait until the Federally mandated warranty expired and then to whatever blows your dress up“ you need to be careful of what you encourage people to do.

Sure they do. Drive a mile in my shoes and see what its’ like to have your vehicle inspected in a routine roadside stop.

obliquely he referenced a shop. A little busybody nosiness might just reveal which one
