Default i dont think any psd will be like the 7.3 as bullet proof

i have 109,000 on my truck no problems except with tranny it doesnt seem to dont shift right like at a yield if i dont come to a complete stop and get back on the throtle is seem to be in like nutral the slams into gear and i dont drive it hard , i do have 350hp innovative extream tune dpf delete ,s&b cold air intack,fitch fuel cat,replaced all oil with royal purple and zmax it has huge power and 23 mpg love it but i hear egr delete is great and delete the cat. i can say that my boss filled up my truck with gas and drove it 100 miles shut it off because it was running hard and figured out what he did it didnt hurt anything flushed it replaced diesel and it runs perfict

Do the DPF delete. Get the pipe that deletes the CAT and the DPF. You will lengthen the life of the truck and get better MPGs

48,000 and a few. No problems. I tow all camping season and it is my DD. I just put the S&B CAI on and I went from 16.7 MPG combined to almost 19 combined. I have long commutes and little city traffic. I am putting on a Spartan Phalanx and Powerstroke67's DPF/CAT delete this weekend. I only need a 4" to 3.5. inch adapter and I'm good to go on the swap out. I am looking for a 4 inch DPF back exhaust, used. I have gotten everything off the different forums thus far and it is worth it price-wise. I will also be putting on EGR block plates with the tunes. I will post new hand calculated numbers. Things should be well into the low 20's, maybe a hair better once the summer blend fuel is back.

About 31000 miles so far,,,one radiator went bad and one EGR valve so far, and now possibly my turbo is leaking. Though I have a fair amount of mods, so it is hard to say if it is a reliability issue or too many mods. SCT tuner, DPF/cat/Muffler delete, Bombproof EGR coolers, AFE intercooler, Banks intake. 8"lift, 37" Toyos. Either way love the truck.
