Downpipes, Delete Kits, Diesel Deletes and More

Upgrade your truck with premium downpipes, delete kits, and tuners. Increase horsepower, improve exhaust flow, and optimize performance with trusted aftermarket solutions.

What is a Downpipe?

A downpipe is a crucial part of your exhaust system that connects the turbocharger outlet to the rest of the exhaust. Many truck enthusiasts upgrade to an L5P downpipe or an L5P exhaust system for improved flow. High-quality downpipes reduce backpressure, enhance turbo efficiency, and can even lower exhaust gas temperatures. This modification is popular on setups featuring engines like the GM Duramax and 6.0 Powerstroke, as smoother exhaust flow translates to better overall performance.

What is a Delete Kit?

A delete kit is a collection of hardware and software modifications designed to remove or bypass specific emissions components from your diesel truck. For example, an EGR delete kit—whether it’s an EGR delete kit for a 6.0 Powerstroke or a 6.0 EGR delete kit—removes the Exhaust Gas Recirculation system, which can boost performance and reduce engine maintenance. Some popular kits include the Ford 6.7 EGR delete kit and the 2015 Duramax delete kit. Even if you’re considering a DEF delete or a full diesel delete, it’s important to remember that these mods can impact your vehicle’s legality on public roads.

What is a Deleted Diesel?

A deleted diesel refers to a diesel truck that has had its factory-installed emissions systems—such as the DPF, EGR, or SCR—removed or bypassed. A diesel delete can involve installing a Powerstroke 6.7 delete kit or opting for a Cummins delete kit (like the 2022 Cummins delete kit) to achieve improved throttle response and power output. Options vary widely, from a 6.7 Cummins throttle valve delete to an LML delete kit for older Duramax engines. Keep in mind that while diesel deletes can yield performance gains, they may also void warranties and violate emissions regulations.

What Are Delete Tuners?

Delete tuners are specialized software devices that reprogram your truck’s ECU after you install a delete kit. For example, an EFI Live tuner for Duramax or EFI Live Cummins system is often used by enthusiasts to calibrate their engine’s performance after removing components like the EGR. Brands like Mini Maxx tuners (including the Mini Maxx V2 delete tuner) and H&S Performance tuners are popular choices. These tuners not only disable error codes from deleted systems such as an EGR delete (or even a welded EGR cooler 6.0 setup) but also optimize engine parameters to extract maximum performance—whether you’re using a 6.4 Powerstroke EGR delete kit or a full delete kit for 6.7 Powerstroke.
