4"/5" Turbo-Back for 2013-2018 Dodge Ram 6.7L Diesel DPF Delete Race Pipe | SPELAB

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is an essential component in most post-2007 diesel vehicles, designed to reduce emissions. However, this device comes with certain disadvantages, including frequent maintenance and potential repair costs.

As the DPF becomes clogged, it increases exhaust backpressure, which disrupts fuel flow, slowing it down considerably. By removing the DPF, fuel can flow more freely and efficiently, leading to significant improvements in fuel economy.
