What Are EGR, DPF, CCV, and DEF?

When shopping for a Duramax delete kit, it’s important to understand what each component actually does. Here’s a breakdown of the most essential terms:

• EGR Delete: The EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) system is designed to reduce emissions by recirculating exhaust gases into the intake. However, it often leads to carbon buildup and reduced performance. Deleting the EGR helps improve combustion efficiency and keeps your engine cleaner.

• DPF Delete: The DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) traps soot and particles but can restrict exhaust flow and increase backpressure. A DPF delete opens up the exhaust system for better horsepower and improved flow.

• CCV Delete: The CCV (Crankcase Ventilation) system can cause oil vapor to re-enter the intake, contaminating it over time. A CCV delete reroutes this system to reduce oil buildup and extend engine life.

• DEF Delete: DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) is used in the SCR system to reduce NOx emissions. While important for emissions compliance, deleting DEF eliminates the need for constant refills and is intended strictly for off-road use.

SPELAB strongly emphasizes that all Duramax delete kit products are intended for off-road, racing, or closed-course use only. Customers must comply with local emissions laws and EPA regulations. Using non-compliant equipment on public roads may be illegal.

FAQ

When considering a Duramax delete kit for your 6.6 Duramax engine, there are several common questions that come up. Here’s a quick FAQ to help you make an informed decision:

Q1: Do I need a tuner after installing a delete kit?
A: Yes. Whether you’re doing an EGR delete, DPF delete, or DEF delete, a tuner is required to recalibrate the ECU and disable warning lights or limp mode.

Q2: Which tuner version should I choose (V2, V3, or with SOTF)?
A: If you want to switch power levels while driving, go with a version that includes SOTF (Switch On The Fly). V2 is great for basic tuning, while V3 supports more advanced setups and future upgrades.

Q3: Can I still pass emissions or inspection after installing a delete kit?
A: SPELAB delete kits are intended for off-road or closed-course use only. They are not recommended for street-legal applications. Always follow local emissions laws.

Q4: Do I need professional tools or can I install it myself?
A: Some kits—like those for LLY or LMM—are DIY-friendly with basic tools. However, newer systems like the L5P delete kit are more complex and should be installed by a professional for best results.
