    • @samswildgarage8805

Is coolant decrease due to poor tune which the mechanic did? besides how can i know whether the tuning was done properly or not?

    Hello. I'm thinking about doing a stage I or stage II delete on my 2017 Ram 1500 eco diesel. Did you replace the OEM tuner with another tuner? What tuner did you replace it with? Does the tuner prevent the check engine light or any other emission warning light from coming on when you did the engine delete? If not, what did you do to prevent those lights from coming on? Do you have a manufacture and part number and who sells it? If doing a stage II engine delete, do I need to replace the exhaust, or can I keep my existing exhaust? Thanks!

    Hey man, a few questions. How’s the truck coming along since all of this? Have you noticed any soot buildup at all? Also, would the GDE tune essentially do the same thing or is this tune more thorough? Lastly, with the reflashing would of thr ECU deleting the check engine light would my truck still pass Texas emissions or is the check engine light being removed just for show?

      Flash tuner instead of bench flash will shut off the egr ( the biggest trouble maker)and its codes on a Stage 1 tune. Stage 2 is this type of full delete. Stage 1= all parts stays on the truck and you can flash your stock tune for testing or dealer visits. Get the trans tune too, it's what helps fuel mileage
