The Complete Buyer's Guide to the 2011–2019 Ford 6.7L Powerstroke All-In-One Delete Kit
Everything you need to know before pulling the DPF, EGR, and DEF off your Powerstroke — written for owners who want real answers, not marketing fluff.
Why owners delete the 6.7L Powerstroke
The 2011–2019 6.7L Powerstroke is one of the most capable diesel engines Ford has ever built — but the factory emissions system is also where most of its problems come from. If you've owned one of these trucks for more than a year or two, you've probably already met some of these headaches:
- DPF clogging and regen cycles that tank your fuel economy and dump raw fuel into the oil
- EGR cooler failures that can crack and dump coolant into the intake
- DEF system faults that throw codes, derate the truck, and leave you stranded
- Turbo coking from EGR soot circulating back through the intake
- Expensive failures — a factory DPF replacement alone can run $3,000–$5,000+
A properly engineered all-in-one delete kit removes the root cause of all of the above in a single install. For off-road and competition trucks, it restores the reliability and efficiency the engine was designed to have before emissions hardware was layered on top.
What's in a 2011–2019 6.7L Powerstroke All-In-One Kit
An "all-in-one" kit is exactly what it sounds like — every piece you need to address the DPF, DEF, and EGR systems in a single package, plus the tuning required to make the truck run correctly afterward. A complete kit for the 2011–2019 6.7L includes:
- Delete-capable tuner with custom calibrations for off-road use
- 4" downpipe-back exhaust (DPF and cat delete pipe, available in aluminized or 304 stainless)
- EGR delete kit (block-off plates, coolant bypass, gaskets, hardware)
- DEF/SCR delete components
- All required hardware, clamps, and gaskets
This is the difference between a kit and a parts list. Sourcing each component separately almost always costs more, takes longer, and creates fitment headaches when something doesn't line up.
Performance gains you can realistically expect
Numbers thrown around on forums are all over the place. Here's what's realistic on a 2011–2019 6.7L Powerstroke with a well-tuned all-in-one delete on the stock turbo and injectors:
| Metric | Stock | After All-In-One Delete |
|---|---|---|
| Horsepower (rear wheel) | ~325–360 hp | ~430–500+ hp |
| Torque (rear wheel) | ~650–700 lb-ft | ~850–1000+ lb-ft |
| Fuel economy (empty) | 14–17 mpg | 18–22+ mpg |
| Fuel economy (towing) | 9–12 mpg | 12–15+ mpg |
| Regen cycles | Every 300–700 mi | Eliminated |
Gains vary by tune level, driving style, turbo, and altitude. The fuel economy improvement alone often pays the kit off within a year for high-mileage drivers.
Compatibility: does this fit your truck?
This kit covers all 2011–2019 6.7L Powerstroke Super Duty trucks:
- 2011–2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty
- 2011–2016 Ford F-350 Super Duty
- 2011–2019 Ford F-450 Super Duty
- 2011–2019 Ford F-550 Super Duty
- 2017–2019 F-250/F-350 Super Duty (note: 2020+ uses a different calibration package — see our 2020–2025 6.7L Powerstroke kit instead)
If you have a cab-and-chassis truck, a non-standard exhaust configuration, or aftermarket turbo/injectors already installed, submit your vehicle info before ordering so we can confirm fitment.
Install: what you're getting into
Most owners with intermediate mechanical experience can install an all-in-one kit in a weekend. Here's a realistic breakdown:
- Time: 6–10 hours for a first-timer, 4–6 hours if you've done one before
- Tools needed: Standard metric and SAE sockets, torque wrench, exhaust hangers, jack stands
- Lift required: A floor jack and stands work, but a lift makes it dramatically easier
- Skill level: Intermediate — comfortable with exhaust work and basic electrical connections
The tuner programming is the easy part. The exhaust swap and EGR delete are where most of the labor goes. If you've never pulled a downpipe before, budget extra time and pick up some PB Blaster — those V-band clamps love to seize.
How to choose between tune options
Most all-in-one kits offer multiple tune levels through the included tuner. Here's how to think about them:
Tow Tune (50–80 hp over stock): Best for trucks that work for a living. Pulls hard, keeps EGTs down, maximizes fuel economy under load.
Daily/Performance Tune (100–150 hp over stock): The sweet spot for most owners. Noticeable everywhere, still safe on stock components.
Race/Competition Tune (150+ hp over stock): Maximum power, intended for closed-course use. Pushes stock transmission and turbo hard — consider supporting mods.
Start conservative. You can always step up; you can't un-grenade a transmission.
What separates a good kit from a bad one
Not all delete kits are created equal. Before you buy from anyone — us or otherwise — make sure the kit includes:
- Calibrations developed specifically for the 2011–2019 6.7L (not generic flashes)
- Mandrel-bent exhaust with proper hangers, not crush-bent pipe that restricts flow
- Stainless or quality-aluminized steel that won't rust out in two winters
- EGR coolant bypass that actually maintains proper engine temps
- Real customer support if something goes sideways during install
A $700 kit that fits poorly and ships with a generic tune will cost you more in time and frustration than a properly engineered kit at twice the price.
Frequently asked questions
Will this void my factory warranty?
Any modification can affect your warranty under the Magnuson-Moss Act. If your truck is still under factory coverage, understand the risk before installing.
Can it be reversed?
Yes — the tuner can return the truck to stock calibration, and the hardware is bolt-on. Keep your original components if you plan to put the truck back to stock later (for resale, smog inspection, etc.).
Will it pass emissions testing?
No. These components remove emissions equipment and are not legal for on-road use anywhere emissions testing is required. Off-road use only.
Do I need a transmission tune too?
For mild tunes, no. For performance/race tunes, a TCM tune is strongly recommended to protect the 6R140 transmission from the added torque.
How long does shipping take?
Most kits ship within 1–3 business days. Tuners require submitting your VIN and vehicle info for custom programming, which adds 2–5 business days.
What if it doesn't fit my truck?
Submit your vehicle info before ordering. We confirm fitment up front so there are no surprises on install day.
Will I get check engine lights after install?
A properly programmed tune addresses the related codes. If you see CELs after install, contact support — usually it's a sensor connection that needs to be re-seated.
