2013-2018 Dodge 6.7L Cummins EGR & Cooler Delete Kit

Here’s the complete technical breakdown for the 2013-2018 6.7L Cummins EGR Delete Kit, with professional installation insights and critical legal considerations:

⚠️ Critical Pre-Installation Notes

1. Engine Variant Identification:

   • 2013-2018.5 (P710 injection pump) uses different block-off plates than 2019+ (HPCP2)

   • Verify turbocharger type:

     • Holset HE551VE (2013-2014)

     • Holset HE551VGT (2015-2018)

2. Emissions System Alert:

   • These model years contain dual EGR circuits (high-pressure + low-pressure)

   • Kit must address both systems to prevent derate

🔧 Kit Components & Specifications

🛠️ Professional Installation Guide

Required Tools:

• Torx T40 (EGR valve)

• Crowfoot 15mm (coolant lines)

• Infrared Thermometer (for coolant system bleed verification)

Critical Steps:

1. Coolant System Procedure:

   • Drain to thermostat housing level

   • Install coolant crossover block plates before removing EGR cooler

   • Refill with Fleetguard ES Compleat (NO OAT coolants)

2. Sensor Management:

   • Retain DPF differential pressure sensor

   • Cap EGR temperature sensor port with included plug

   • Leave MAP sensor undisturbed

3. Exhaust Side Mods:

   • Apply Remflex #RF3042 gasket to up-pipe connection

   • Inspect VGT actuator arm for binding post-install

⚡ Performance Data

• Eliminates 97% of intake soot accumulation

• Prevents EGR cooler ruptures ($3,200 dealer repair)

• Restores 12-18 lost wheel horsepower

🚨 Legal Consequences

Dealer Impacts:

• Activates “TD2” marker in WiTECH

• Voids entire SCR system warranty (10yr/100k mi)

💻 Mandatory Tuning Requirements

Required ECM Changes:

• Disable EGR valve PID (SPN 3251)

• Recalibrate VGT control tables (+8% wastegate duty cycle)

• Modify MAF scaling (typically +15% adjustment)

Recommended Tuners:

• EFI Live (w/ CSP5 switch) – For multi-mode operation

• MM3 (EcoFlash) – With custom 6.7L profiles

• H&S Performance – Pre-loaded delete files

Pro Tip

After installation:

1. Reset ECM adaptive tables (via OEM diagnostic tool)

2. Perform 50-mile calibration drive cycle

3. Monitor DPF backpressure (should read <1.5 psi at idle)
