open your hood and see if there is anything running from the intake to the exhaust and about cutting the muffler off i had that done and it was a waste of time and money no difference in anything at all better off deleteing everything

Yes but its worth it.I asked the service manager who im friends with here and said it depends what the problem is if its not delete related they would warranty it.the mileage gains are worth it.

In order to get it to sound like a vp'd truck you need a 2nd gen exhaust manifold with a different turbo and a 2nd gen intake manifold. At least that is what I have read.

I just took a look and the only pipe I see is 3/4 pipe comin from intake to the turbo is only on the passenger side. I looked under and seen two converters with the muffler. I tryin to figure what to do before I leave Louisiana headed to Wyoming for work this Cummins is completely diff from my powerstroke I had straights on it with egr del bored heads the whole 9 and it's nothing like this I can't even find the egr valve. The dealer here knows less than I do so thanks fellas for the insite

Thoroughbred diesel has a smarty jr and h and s egr delete with delete stick.for around 850.00.that would get you started remove muffler as well and it sounds pretty darn good.
