I've been mulling over this for a while and I need some advice. I drive an Lml Duramax and recently I've noticed that my fuel efficiency is not what it used to be. I mean, I love my truck but those frequent trips to the gas station are starting to burn a hole in my pocket. I've been hearing about this EGR DPF delete thing and how it could potentially improve my fuel efficiency. Do you think that's a good idea? Or should I just grin and bear the extra gas cost? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

You know, I've been on this wild internet hunt. My Duramax has been guzzling fuel like there's no tomorrow and I've heard whispers about this lml up pipe. So, I thought, why not give it a shot? I must have clicked through a million pages, each one more confusing than the last. But then, jackpot! Stumbled onto this page on SPELAB Auto Parts. They've laid out everything - the pros, the cons, you name it. It's like they knew exactly what I was looking for! Now, I'm no mechanic, but this stuff seems pretty straight forward. What do you think, is it worth giving it a go?

Man, I can't thank you enough for pointing me in the right direction. This DEF delete kit Duramax thing was giving me a real headache. But you hit the nail on the head - SPELAB Auto Parts, they had it all spelled out. It's like they read my mind or something! Now I feel like I've got a fighting chance at understanding this stuff. And hey, maybe I'm not a mechanic, but that doesn't mean I can't learn, right? So yeah, I reckon it's definitely worth a shot. Thanks again, mate. You're a lifesaver.

No, I don't think that is a good idea! Removing emission control systems like the EGR and DPF is illegal in most areas and violates environmental regulations. Operating a vehicle with these build now gg systems removed can result in fines, penalties, and even vehicle impounding.
