Introduction
Free your Sprinter from restrictive emissions equipment with the Mercedes Sprinter 3.0L 3-inch DPF Delete Exhaust, designed for 2010–2025 Mercedes-Benz and Freightliner Sprinter 2500/3500 vans equipped with the 3.0L V6 diesel engine.
This complete Sprinter DPF delete kit removes the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), catalytic converters and related exhaust restrictions to improve exhaust flow, reliability and drivability for race-use applications.
The system supports early W906 exhaust designs (2010–2018) and revised W907 / W910 exhaust configurations (2019–2025). Mercedes updated the exhaust and turbo direct pipe in late 2018, so it is important to confirm which exhaust version your Sprinter uses before ordering.
This Sprinter DPF delete kit is available in T-304 or T-409 stainless steel. The material choice affects corrosion resistance and cost only, not performance or fitment. 409 versions include resonator mufflers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between T-304 and T-409 stainless steel?
Both versions have the same fitment and design. T-304 offers higher corrosion resistance, while T-409 is a cost-effective option commonly used in exhaust systems.
Does this exhaust kit fit all 2018 Sprinter 3.0L vans?
Yes, but you must confirm whether the van uses the early or revised exhaust design, as both were used during that model year.
Is tuning required?
Yes. Race tuning is required for proper operation after DPF removal.
