Benefits

Expect to see a significant increase in fuel mileage. If your DPF is plugged up your probably averaging about 13-14 mpg. More or less depending on the severity of the restriction. After deleting the DPF/CAT expect to get a combined mileage of 18-19 mpg.

• It removes the need to service the DPF at regular intervals (cleaning, replacement)
• A DPF delete will remove the possibility of a DPF failure which could cause expensive diesel repairs
• Due to less exhaust backpressure, the DPF delete increases exhaust flow and therefore increases the performance of your motor!
• Paired with an ECU remap, the DPF delete is proven to increase power and torque for all vehicles
• You will get a FREE high-quality exhaust tip for 4''Turbo-back – unlike others who charge extra!

Installation

2018-2020 3.0L Powerstroke DPF Delete Kit Installation

Install takes about 1hr with basic hand tools done on the ground of your driveway or garage. Quicker if you have automotive style lift. Cutting may be be required to fit shorter wheelbase bed/cab configurations. Clamps, hangers and hardware are included. You may have to re-use some factory hardware.
Tuner Required: Removal of the DPF, CAT, SCR, and/or DOC involves removing and eliminating emission related sensors. A DPF delete capable tuner is required to prevent any check engine light or diagnostic trouble codes from setting.

Q1. Is this DPF Delete Race Pipe compatible with a 2017 F250 delete pipe setup?
This product is specifically designed for the 2018–2020 3.0L Powerstroke F-150 and is not compatible with the 2017 F250 6.7L Powerstroke. However, SPELAB offers dedicated DPF delete solutions for the 2017 F250. Please contact our team for recommendations.

Q2. Can I use this for a 2019 F250 race pipe upgrade?
No, this pipe is built for the 3.0L Powerstroke and does not fit the 2019 F250 6.7L Powerstroke. SPELAB offers performance race pipes specifically engineered for 6.7L applications.

Q3. How is this different from a 2019 6.7 Powerstroke delete pipe?
The 2019 6.7L Powerstroke uses a larger, differently routed exhaust system. This pipe is for 3.0L Powerstroke F-150s only. For 6.7L trucks, check out our dedicated delete kits.

Q4. What’s the difference between this and a 2017 F250 DPF delete kit?
The 2017 F250 features a 6.7L Powerstroke engine, which has a different exhaust layout compared to the 3.0L F-150. This race pipe is not interchangeable, but we do offer solutions specifically for the 6.7L platform.

Q5. Will this fit a 2018 F250 DPF delete setup?
No. The 2018 F250 runs on a 6.7L Powerstroke, which requires a different style of DPF delete pipe. This product is built only for 2018–2020 3.0L Powerstroke F-150 models.

Q6. Can I install this on a 2019 F250 with a 5-inch exhaust system?
This product is available in 3.5" and 4" options and is only compatible with 3.0L Powerstroke F-150 trucks. It is not intended for use on 5" systems found on 2019 F250 6.7L Powerstrokes.

Q7. How is the install process different from a 2017 Powerstroke delete pipe?
The 2017 Powerstroke (6.7L) requires more complex routing and sensor deletes. This race pipe offers a simpler install for 3.0L trucks—can be done with hand tools in your driveway or garage.

Q8. Can this replace the exhaust system on a 2018 F250?
No, this pipe won’t fit a 2018 F250 due to differences in pipe diameter, mounting points, and engine configuration. SPELAB recommends vehicle-specific components for the best fit and performance.

Q9. What ECU tuning do I need for a 2019 F250 DPF delete?
For a 2019 F250 6.7L Powerstroke, you’ll need a tuner capable of disabling DPF, EGR, and other emissions systems. This product has different tuning needs as it's designed for 3.0L trucks.

Q10. Does SPELAB offer a complete 2017 F250 race pipe and delete kit combo?
Yes! We offer full kits including race pipes, tuners, and exhaust components for the 2017 F250 6.7L Powerstroke. Visit our site or reach out to our team for available bundles.
