[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 378209, member: 412"] By all means, do let us know what's inaccurate. Eliminating the constriction in a DPF system and breathing clean air by also eliminating EGR will give you some minimal HP gains but if you're looking for say a 10%+ HP boost of a 6.7 F or D or a 6.6 C/G you're going to have to add fuel and/or boost. More fuel + more boost would make more MPG a pretty neat trick. My '11 6.7L Ford @ 205K Mi was averaging 80-100Mi between re-gen and the average MPG was <15MPG @ 80MPH as a result. I've got 5K hrs and change on the motor and average 19%-21% idle time summer-winter with an average overall speed over the lifetime of ~41MPH. It's mostly road miles on the pickup. Interesting side note, the car I drive for work traveling 2+ states has also averaged 41MPH over the last 65K Mi. It's not a diesel, but, my driving style and idling habits must not change much between the 2 vehicles. Lots of Interstate @ 80 or other 4-lane @ 75, not very much 55/65 2-lane for either rig.
