Crackdown on emissions bypassing could lead to increased engine work. Diesel engine building will soon see an increase in numbers-very soon! Why do I say that? In an effort to eliminate smoking engines and reduce emissions, the EPA came down hard on tuner manufacturers just a few months ago, issuing warning/cease notices on diesel particulate filters (DPF) and EGR delete tunes/kits. This crackdown affects diesel trucks from 2008 and newer with OEM DPFs and EGR emissions equipment. Bypassing the OEM emissions equipment, diesel trucks can get 19-20 mpg (16-18 mpg under load). With the emissions equipment left on the trucks, these vehicles average 12-13 mpg (about 8-9 mpg under load).
