6.7 Cummins Delete Kit 2019-2026 Ram 2500/3500

Why Does Your 2019-2026 6.7 Cummins Need a Delete Kit?

1. Frequent DPF Regenerations Are Killing Your Fuel Economy

The factory DPF on your 2019-2022 Ram 2500 6.7 Cummins traps soot and must periodically burn it off through a process called "regeneration." Each regen cycle injects extra fuel, raises exhaust temperatures, and can reduce your MPG by 2-4 miles per gallon. If you tow heavy or idle frequently, regens happen more often — sometimes every 100-200 miles — and the problem only gets worse as the filter ages.

2. EGR Cooler Failures Can Destroy Your Engine

The EGR system on 2019-2026 6.7 Cummins engines recirculates hot exhaust gases back into the intake, raising intake air temperatures and depositing carbon buildup. Over time, the EGR cooler can crack internally, allowing coolant into the combustion chamber — a failure mode that has stranded countless Ram 2500 and 3500 owners. Deleting the EGR eliminates this failure point entirely.

3. Restricted Exhaust Flow Limits Power and Responsiveness

Your factory emissions system creates significant exhaust backpressure. The DPF, catalytic converter, and DOC all sit in the exhaust path, choking the turbo's ability to spool freely. A 2019 Cummins delete kit removes these restrictions, allowing exhaust gases to exit faster, reducing EGTs (exhaust gas temperatures), improving turbo response, and unlocking horsepower the factory left on the table.

What Can a 6.7 Cummins Delete Kit Solve?

DPF Delete Pipes: Eliminate Regens and Restore MPG

Our DPF delete pipes for 2019-2024 Ram 6.7 Cummins replace the entire factory DPF/DOC assembly with a straight-through or mandrel-bent pipe. By removing the particulate filter, exhaust backpressure drops significantly, regen cycles stop completely, and most owners report 3-5 MPG improvements. The CAT & DPF combo delete pipe removes both the catalytic converter and DPF in one unit for maximum flow.

EGR Cooler Delete: Prevent Costly Coolant Failures

The EGR cooler delete kit for 2009-2024 6.7L Cummins removes the EGR cooler and blocks off the exhaust gas recirculation passages. This eliminates carbon buildup in the intake manifold, prevents cooler cracking and coolant loss, lowers intake air temperatures, and extends engine life. It's the single most impactful reliability upgrade for any 2019-2026 Cummins.

Full Exhaust Systems: Complete Flow Optimization

Our 4" DPF delete downpipe-back exhaust for 2019-2022 Ram 2500 replaces everything from the turbo downpipe back with a free-flowing 4-inch mandrel-bent system. This is the most comprehensive exhaust delete option, delivering maximum flow for towing, competition, or off-road use.

Tuners: Clear Codes and Unlock Performance

A diesel tuner like the Minimaxx V2 recalibrates the ECU to run without the deleted emissions systems, preventing check-engine lights and error codes. The Minimaxx V2 for 2018-2021 Ram Cummins 6.7L includes pre-loaded delete tunes that optimize fuel delivery, timing, and boost — adding 40-120+ horsepower over stock while maintaining safe operating parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions About 2019-2026 6.7 Cummins Delete Kits

Q1: What does a 2019-2026 6.7 Cummins delete kit include?

A complete 6.7 Cummins delete kit for 2019-2026 Ram trucks typically includes an EGR cooler delete (block-off plates, coolant reroute hardware, and intake manifold plug), a DPF delete pipe or full exhaust system to replace the factory DPF/DOC assembly, and a tuner to recalibrate the ECU and clear emissions-related codes. Some kits also include a CAT delete pipe that removes the catalytic converter along with the DPF in a single unit. At EGR Performance, you can purchase individual components or build a complete package — EGR delete, DPF delete, and tuner — tailored to your specific year and model.

Q2: How much horsepower does a 6.7 Cummins delete kit add?

A 6.7 Cummins delete kit alone (EGR + DPF removal) typically adds 20-40 horsepower from reduced exhaust backpressure and improved airflow. When combined with a tuner like the Minimaxx V2, total gains of 40-120+ horsepower are common depending on the tune level selected. Some owners pushing higher-power tunes with supporting modifications report gains exceeding 150 HP. The exact number depends on your model year, tune selection, and whether additional mods (intake, lift pump) are installed.

Q3: Will a delete kit improve MPG on my 2019-2022 Ram 2500?

Yes. Most 2019-2022 Ram 2500 owners who install a full 6.7 Cummins delete kit report fuel economy improvements of 3-5 MPG. The primary reason: removing the DPF eliminates fuel-wasting regeneration cycles, which inject raw fuel into the exhaust to burn off trapped soot. With the DPF gone, regens stop entirely. Combined with the reduced exhaust backpressure from a DPF delete pipe and the optimized fuel mapping from a tuner, your engine operates more efficiently under all conditions — especially during highway driving and towing.

Q4: Is a 6.7 Cummins delete kit legal?

Deleting emissions systems on vehicles registered for on-road use violates the federal Clean Air Act and may violate state and local regulations. Emissions delete kits from EGR Performance are sold exclusively for off-road, competition, farm, and agricultural use only. Always check your local, state, and federal laws before purchasing or installing any delete product. Many states require emissions testing for registration, and deleted vehicles will not pass these inspections.

Q5: How long does it take to install a 2019 Ram 2500 6.7 Cummins delete kit?

Installation time varies by component. A DPF delete pipe on a 2019 Ram 2500 can typically be installed in 2-4 hours with basic hand tools and a jack stand or lift. An EGR cooler delete kit takes 3-5 hours as it requires removing the intake manifold and EGR components from the top of the engine. A complete full delete (EGR + DPF + tuner) on a 2019-2021 Ram generally takes 6-10 hours for an experienced DIY mechanic. Professional shops usually complete the full job in 4-6 hours.

Q6: Do I need a tuner for my 2021 Cummins delete kit?

Yes. If you remove the DPF, EGR, or catalytic converter on a 2021 Ram 6.7 Cummins without a tuner, the ECU will immediately trigger multiple check engine codes, put the truck into a derated power mode, and potentially prevent the engine from running properly. A tuner like the Minimaxx V2 recalibrates the engine computer to operate without these emissions systems, clears fault codes, and optimizes fuel delivery, timing, and boost for the new configuration. The tuner is an essential component — not optional.

Q7: What's the difference between a DPF delete pipe and a full exhaust system?

A DPF delete pipe is a direct replacement for the factory DPF and DOC (diesel oxidation catalyst) assembly — it swaps out the restrictive emissions components while keeping the rest of your factory exhaust intact. A full 4" downpipe-back exhaust system replaces everything from the turbo downpipe all the way to the tailpipe with larger-diameter (typically 4-inch) mandrel-bent piping. The full exhaust system delivers maximum flow and is ideal for heavy towing or high-horsepower builds, while the DPF delete pipe is a simpler, more budget-friendly option that still eliminates the DPF.

Q8: Can I delete just the EGR on my 2022 Ram 2500 Cummins?

Technically, yes — you can install just an EGR cooler delete kit on your 2022 Ram 2500 6.7 Cummins. However, the EGR delete alone will trigger engine codes that require a tuner to clear. Many owners choose to do the full delete (EGR + DPF) at the same time to avoid paying for two separate installations. If budget is a concern, starting with the EGR delete addresses the most common reliability issue (cooler failure), and the DPF delete can be added later.

Q9: How much does a 2019-2026 Cummins delete kit cost?

The cost varies depending on which components you select. At EGR Performance, individual components range from $165 (EGR cooler delete kit) to $879 (Minimaxx V2 tuner). A DPF delete pipe runs $175-$257, and the full 4" exhaust system is $652. A complete package — EGR delete + DPF delete pipe + tuner — typically totals $1,200-$1,900 depending on the specific products chosen. All orders ship free from our U.S. warehouses.

Q10: What is EGR Performance's return and warranty policy for delete kits?

EGR Performance offers a 45-day hassle-free return policy on all delete kit components. If the part doesn't fit or you change your mind, you can return it within 45 days for a full refund or exchange. All products also come with a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Our 24/7 live support team is available to help with fitment questions, installation guidance, and post-install troubleshooting to ensure you're completely satisfied with your purchase.
