Description
This delete pipe is designed specifically for the 6.7 Powerstroke. It fits your 2011–2019 Ford F-250, F-350, and F-450 Super Duty trucks.It replaces the restrictive factory DPF section to drastically improve exhaust flow. This simpler, unrestricted exhaust path helps lower backpressure and supports more consistent, reliable performance under heavy towing or heavy-load conditions. (Note: A DPF delete tuner is required for proper operation.)

Choose Your Perfect Setup: DPF Pipe Size & Muffler Options
To ensure you get the exact performance and sound you want, we offer multiple configurations. Here is a quick guide to help you select the right options from our dropdown menu:
1. 4″ vs. 5″ Diameter Exhaust Pipe
- 4-Inch Straight Pipe (Best for Daily/Towing): A 4-inch dpf back exhaust pipe configuration maintains higher exhaust gas velocity for optimal low-end torque. This is the recommended choice for most drivers. It delivers a deep, aggressive tone without excessive highway drone.
- 5-Inch Straight Pipe (Maximum Flow/Sound): A 5-inch dpf delete pipe setup is ideal for heavily modified trucks pushing extreme horsepower. It produces a massively deep, throaty roar. (Note: A 5″ pipe may result in a slight loss of low-end torque and noticeable drone at highway speeds.)
2. Straight Pipe vs. w/ Muffler
- Straight Pipe (No Muffler): This setup acts as a true 6.7 powerstroke muffler delete, offering the loudest, most aggressive turbo whistle and exhaust roar. Maximum airflow, zero restriction.
- w/ Muffler Option: Choosing a 6.7 Powerstroke race pipe with muffler includes a high-flow performance muffler. It still provides massive flow benefits and a deep tone, but significantly reduces in-cab drone and overall harshness for a more comfortable daily drive.
Why Remove the DPF on Your 6.7 Powerstroke?
Is a clogged factory DPF dragging your truck down to a miserable 9-11 MPG? Removing the restrictive filter and applying a proper tune is the single most effective way to shoot your fuel economy up to 16-19+ MPG while unlocking 50 to 150+ additional horsepower.
- Escape the 10 MPG Trap (Gain 4-6+ MPG): When a DPF clogs, your 6.7L gets stuck in endless, fuel-dumping active regeneration cycles. A complete delete stops this wasted fuel instantly, allowing most drivers to see a massive jump to 16-19+ MPG on the highway.
- Massive Power & Torque Gains: Freeing up exhaust flow reduces backpressure, allowing your turbo to spool faster and your engine to produce 50 to 150+ extra horsepower and significantly more low-end torque for heavy towing.
- Lower EGTs (Up to 200°F Drop): A free-flowing exhaust significantly lowers Exhaust Gas Temperatures (EGTs), often by 100°F to 200°F. This drastically reduces thermal stress on your engine and turbocharger, extending their lifespan.
- Zero DPF Maintenance Costs: Say goodbye to costly $2,000+ filter replacements, frequent dealer cleanings, and the frustrating ‘reduced engine power’ limp mode associated with clogged filters.
Why Choose T-409 Stainless Steel?
When it comes to heavy-duty exhaust systems for the 6.7 Powerstroke, T-409 stainless steel strikes the perfect balance between rugged durability and exceptional value:
- Superior Thermal Stability: Exhaust systems endure extreme temperature fluctuations. T-409 features a lower thermal expansion rate, minimizing the risk of weld cracking or pipe distortion during harsh heat cycles.
- Built for Off-Road & Heavy-Duty Use: Engineered to withstand demanding environments, T-409 effectively resists road salt, moisture, and acidic exhaust gases.
- Maximum Value & Longevity: It delivers reliable protection without the unnecessary premium of cosmetic metals, keeping your budget focused on engine performance.
Essential Add-on: DPF Delete Tuner for 6.7 Powerstroke
After installing the physical DPF Delete Kit, it is mandatory to reprogram the vehicle’s ECU to ensure the engine runs smoothly and prevent trouble codes.
- Prevents Check Engine Lights (CEL): The ECU expects the DPF to be present. A DPF delete tuner reprograms the ECU to recognize the removal, preventing limp mode or CEL warnings.
- Optimizes Engine Performance: The tuner adjusts fuel maps and exhaust flow parameters to accommodate the new unrestricted exhaust, resulting in smoother operation and maximized power.
- Recommended Devices: Use a compatible DPF delete tuner like the Mini Maxx v2 or v1 to ensure proper ECU reprogramming.
Important Notes:
- Legal Considerations: Due to emission regulations, DPF removal may not be legal in all regions. Always check your local laws before proceeding with the installation.
- ECU Tuning Required: After DPF deletion, use an ECU tuner to prevent error codes and maximize your vehicle’s performance.
FAQ
Q1: What does the ‘DPF race pipe’ mean?
A1: The ‘DPF race pipe’, also called the ‘DPF Delete Pipe’, replaces the restrictive factory DPF section while keeping other original exhaust parts intact. Whether you are searching for a reliable 2017 f250 race pipe or upgrading a 2011 F-450, this setup provides a massive exhaust flow upgrade without the need to replace your entire exhaust system.
Q2: What does ‘DP-back/Downpipe-back’ mean?
A2: This means the exhaust system runs from the downpipe to the end of the exhaust pipe, replacing everything from the downpipe outlet. This typically includes the mid-pipe, catalytic converter (if present), and muffler.
Q3: What does ‘Turbo-back’ mean?
A3: This means that the exhaust system runs from the turbocharger to the end of the exhaust pipe, replacing everything from the turbocharger outlet. This typically includes the downpipe, mid-pipe, catalytic converter (if present), muffler, and tailpipe.
Q4: Will this kit trigger a Check Engine Light (CEL)?
A4: Yes, if installed without a tune. The factory ECU expects the DPF to be there. You must install a DPF-delete capable tuner (like a Mini Maxx) at the same time to reprogram the ECU, prevent limp mode, and keep the CEL off.
Q5: Will removing the DPF make my 6.7 Powerstroke too loud?
A5: It will definitely be louder and have a more aggressive turbo whistle. The 4” system offers a moderate, deep tone suitable for daily driving. The 5” system is significantly louder and throatier, but may introduce some in-cab drone at highway speeds. If you want the performance without the noise, you can always weld in an aftermarket diesel resonator or muffler later.
Q6: Do I need to buy any extra hardware to install this?
A6: No. Our T-409 stainless steel DPF delete kit comes complete with all the necessary pipe sections and heavy-duty clamps required for the physical installation. (Just remember you need an ECU Tuner separately.)
Q7: How difficult is the installation? Can I do it myself?
A7: The installation uses OE-style routing and is completely bolt-on. An experienced DIYer can usually complete it in their driveway using basic hand tools and jack stands. However, the factory DPF is very heavy, so having a friend help or opting for professional shop installation is recommended if you are not experienced.
Q8: Will deleting the DPF void my factory powertrain warranty?
A8: Yes. Dealerships will detect the missing emissions equipment and the altered ECU tuning, which typically voids the factory powertrain warranty. This modification is for truck owners prioritizing long-term engine health, fuel economy, and power over the factory warranty.
Q9: Is this legal for street use, and will it pass emissions?
A9: No. DPF delete kits are strictly for closed-course off-road or competition racing use only. Removing emissions equipment violates EPA/CARB regulations, and your truck will not pass a smog or emissions test.
