Default 08 F350 black Maxx and straight pipe, cause problems?

Just bought an 08 F350 that came with H&S black maxx installed, i already have DPF delete and am looking at throwing on a 5" straight pipe ankle burner. Would the combination of those 2 pose any problems as far as popping codes, power loss, undetectable EGT's? Ive had several powerstrokes with various programmers and straight pipes with no problems but they were 02 and older. Any input and personal experiences is greatly appreciated!

I have put 5 inch exhaust on a few trucks and would never do it again. Its just to tight always gave me trouble when I went off road.

I don't own a 6.4 , but I have a friend that owns a 08 with H&S delete truck runs great code free.

If you put a differernt exhaust in you will have to mount the egt probe in that exhaust

Im reading the egt probe is pre turbo on the driver side manifold, why move it to post turbo?
Think im going to go with a 4" straight, heard it sounds a bit better although i cant recall ever hearing a powerstroke with a 5"

The only sensor I know of on the driver side manifold is the ebp sensor and tube. The probes should be pre dpf and post dpf.
