Most of these regulations do little for the environment, they only ensure that small companies can’t survive and large corporations take over more industries.
This! Realize that not only it affects regular guys wanting cool trucks but it makes it more expensive for every business to run. These emissions systems are so complex and almost designed to kill your motor. Only the largest companies can afford to buy and keep new trucks. This raises costs for everyone for an unknown "climate change" benefit. This is criminal what the left has done to this country. Hope that people who support this get theirs when shit hits the fan. Problem is this guy on the podcast thinks he can comply his way out of this. It wont happen.
@Jonkeau
Maybe if all the assholes would stop "rolling coal" you might get some symathy.
The reality is the epa is just catching up with the oil burners. The gas car/truck modders have been dealing with this for years and years. Get over it, there are ways to mod stuff legally, it is just expensive. Quit your whining
Yes,That's exactly the Point. You can control the market when you are the market with no competition.
All part of NWO, or as the ruling clan refers to it "Tikkun Olam". Look at daily, massive, sky spraying (aka chemtrails). Ruling clan members hold patents for the spray. It is happening, and it is deliberate. The rulers control $$, governments, and media (a lot more, including weather) but these are their most strategic control elements of modern society. It's all about controlling, and eliminating non-clan people. The EPA (like the CDC and every other executive branch agency, Congress, Presidents, the court system) is completely fraudulent. Sure, the EPA, and the rest of the federal "government" employs non-clan slaves. The genius of their control system is knowing how fool-proof employing slaves to be part of the control is. People do not bite the hand that feeds (particularly cops and other brainwashed rules enforcers). "Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the fields of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something, they know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they condemn it." - Woodrow Wilson (the U.S. President who privatized U.S. currency). "There will be in the next generation or so, a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude, and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak.....Producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire socities, so that people, will in fact, have their liberties taken away from them, but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel, by propaganda, or brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological methods.....And this seems to be the final revolution." - Aldous Huxley (purported author of Brave New World the "fictional" tale of toltalitarian ruled future society).
Facts
For the owners that leave their emissions intact then there needs to be some kind of tax incentive when we have to replace a emission component when it fails. These manufacturers and dealers are taking advantage of this.
Yes, or the EPA needs to warranty it for the life of the truck. And if there's any engine failures due to the emissions systems, they pay for a new one as well for life.
They make plenty of government funds and fines from shops....they got plenty of $$.
Once they see how much failure and it's on their dime, they may figure it out. But it's the government so I doubt it
Stupid idea cause we the tax payer will be taxes more to cover that. Just need to remove them. My 2018 ford runs. Ether and I get 2 mpg more with it fully deleted and tuned.
@@user-tf5kr4qp2i we get a tax break if we buy certain windows for our homes or even solar panels. If there comes a time that we need to replace an emission component then a tax break could help offset. And just remove it? Have you not been paying attention?
@@doughty_performance the government is not a cash register !grow up!
@@andrewslagle1974 grow up? Guess it’s your ignorance that you don’t take part in tax breaks. Educate yourself.
I remember all the hate when Ryan stopped tuning. I am happy to see this podcast to understand what happened. I know where to go now for 5.9 tuning since it is available again.
Great podcast.. Boy, talk about one heck of a journey that Ryan has been through. Keep fighting the good fight Ryan milliken! You got my support brother
Thanks for listening!
Not quitting is the soldier in him..
EPA has no Authority to give out fines they are over stepping the Boundaries
All of our government is over stepping
he says " EPA " but really, who was it, which agency and what state? could have been state because he didn't really give us details, or i missed them ...All states differ on this stuff.
Had friend with a 6.7 mega cab that was tuned and deleted. He had it smog tested on Colorado for the heck of it . It passed the test. If his passed. Im sure they can be tuned and pass emissions without the crappy def system.
insane when you think about it
I live about 30 miles from Hardway. A friend, one of my former Army Commanders, has known Ryan for a long. Although my first diesel is on the horizon, 😊a short trip to Mary Esther, Florida will be in order!
Emissions tuning is never going to take off. Yeah you’ll have some enthusiasts mess with it. With delete tunes you had a huge number of “average guys”that just got sick of their work truck breaking down. That crowd now runs gas trucks and has no interest in emissions tunes.
Exactly right... I own a diesel shop and talked all my real customers to buy gas or pre emissions rigs. Don't get me wrong I work on commonfail stuff but won't delete anymore. I make more anyways building custom older trucks with more power and torque than the new stuff and install new 10 speed autos or g5600 in them. Emissions controlled trucks are garbage....egr destroys cylinder walls and dpf is a carcinogenic generating shitbox. I refuse to work with dpf systems..the ash coming from them is toxic af... Long live the 12v 7100pump 24v and 7.3. In the middle of doing a 7100 pump 6.7 Cummins to drop in place of a 6.0 Ford now. It's a custom 70s highboy and he did 6.0 swap 80k miles ago and lifted head gaskets.
True. Sold mine early this year & now in a gasser.
New Ford 7.3 gas owner right here. I wasn’t towing enough to warrant dealing with this bullshit anymore. I love the new diesels and having all that power but my pockets aren’t deep enough to pay for the gov meddling and incompetence
My next truck is a 7.3 Godzilla
@@TheBandit7613 that gas job is a pig !
Who suggestions that have worked wonderfully in the class 8 market and is also something to worth looking into for the passenger diesel market and that is DPF alternatives and Max mileage fuelborne Catalyst which is readily available from Pittsburgh Power. If you use the max mileage Catalyst and you have your DPF service or get a DPF from DPF Alternatives they will guarantee the life of that product as long as you use the fuelborne catalyst. What a great setup
This is hands down the best Diesel Podcast to date. What Mr Milliken is saying about 1980's gas vehicles vs todays gas vehicles and comparing to modern diesel emission controls is spot on. We are seeing history in progress and it will work out for diesel just like it has for gasoline vehicles. I retired from a 30 year career as a mechanic in 2010. I was licensed in CA to do Emission testing and repairs. I saw up close and personal what cars and light trucks went through in the 70's, 80's, and 90's. My 2021 L5P produces 445hp and 910 ft lbs of torque emission intact. That is so much higher torque and hp as compared to a 2002 Duramax with very little emission equipment. Mr Milliken is smart and willing to play by the rules. He is going to change the industry for the better and do it correctly. Look at Gale Banks for example. The days of deleting are gone no matter where you live. Please keep content like this coming.
Haha my lb7 is tossing out more then your choked out l5p. Hand down more flow and fuel economy, idc what you think about emissions, but they are death of diesels.
@@zachammersmith933you have a 20 year old truck that’s on its last leg and it probably needs injectors.
Why go domestic tunes and deletes when I can just get a deleted tune from a company like big daddy diesel in Canada which doesn't have the same emissions as the USA?
Ever heard of CTT they was in Canada and got shut down
No way they would chance selling a delete tune to you and get cut out of the US market.
That's all fine and dandy until you need to bring it in for a transmission replacement and no shop will touch it because it doesn't comply with the emissions standards.
Funny he had mentioned it, i have a 06 5.9 mega cab. 184k has a built transmission, EO numberd upgraded turbo, EO numbered ddp injectors, wheels and tires. Dealer offered me a trade in when looking at a newer truck of $4200…
Yeah I would had told him to GF HIMSELF. What's funny, is I know a major Ram dealer here my state that has a 2019 Ram 3500 Crewcab 4x4 Laramie that is deleted and tuned, but yet they want top dollar for it as if it's not tuned. In my opinion, I'd much rather have the emissions deleted myself. Fuck the epa those fuckers can pound sand. Trump for 2024 and he hates regulation. I can see him opening all drilling and fracking and be done with the EPA and they waste of space within our government and economy.
So, if you have like 5 components that are EPA approved you can install and tune them legally or do you have to retest it as a system?
Do they make high flow DPF systems that are complainant that don’t cost an arm and a leg like the stock equipment?
I missed the podcast, but I do have a question.
I have a 2006 dodge with a 5.9 which I bought brand new how does this affect me?
I hear all the stuff about the epa and that is the reason I won't buy a new truck.
So only tuning race trucks or emission compliant how do you justify if a truck is a race truck yes if it has cage and gutted bedsides it’s obvious but what about the 7.70 or index racers because everybody can’t go straight to outlaw or 5.90 but great video lots of knowledge
How the heck is Holley, Motec, and HP Tuners not getting hammered by the EPA? They are only going after little guys?
We don’t talk out loud about that
They got deep pockets and they get the pass by government do to some kick backs probably.
I beg to differ about the reason to do these things. It takes MANY failure prone parts out of the equation when they are deleted. I've seen soo many people stranded due to suck simple and problematic issues.
Ive got a powerstroke that's intact and I rarely drive it due to the cost of possible repairs.
What about selling tunes to out of country. Or usa residence getting tunes from Canada?
What are the rules for pre 07.5 trucks? What are they looking at? What is their standards for them?
They don't care. Evidently, the epa only started going after diesels around 7.5/10.. anything before then falls before the epa crack down. My 99tdi had an egr and it was an easy block off plate no cel.. it blows my mind the epa/atf are in the same boat, just making stuff up as they go to take away from the citizens
I bought my 05 Dodge 3500 4x4 and 4 door long bed dullay in pristine condition and 5.9 cummins 6 speed manual and manual 4x4 shifter .And I will have to the day I die because you can’t buy this type truck anymore and my first diesel was 1992 3/4 ton 4x4 that I bought new . Iam a old car hauler for GM and I watched the Dodges until they fixed their problems like a 5 speed manual and the intercooler and it was time to buy and I did .
I would like to see some insight on what goes into passing the 49 state tests. What are they testing or measuring and what parameters do you have to stay in to pass. To me even 49 state emissions tuning or hard parts is going against the epa if you aren't supposed to go beyond factory parameters because you are burning more fuel to make more power even if the emissions are the same. And if the epa is only worried about emissions what does it matter how you get there in regards to making sure you can't turn off check engine lights or have all systems running like he was talking about. Why can't you just put a sensor on the tailpipe to get the final reading and be done with it. Any shop with a advanced enough scanner or state emissions test facility could pass or fail a truck after its been modified.
Some states do not even require testing with a few have no state inspections at all
Yep my state doesn't test.
I think it’s crazy how much the EPA is getting on this stuff. Sure it’s a law already but it’s been on the books for decades and suddenly there’s enforcement without any kind of heads up for us the people. It’s creepy. I’m all about being responsible and not puking black smoke all over. but it’s just just not going to fix anything by smashing the little guy turning up the horse power and enjoying his truck. Usually it’s going to save the owner of the truck thousands of dollars in the oversized trash can under their trucks
The EPA was defunded a few years ago so they took it upon themselves to sue everyone to get their money
Do not vote dem. they are behind this crap !
what's the date on this video? it won't show, no matter how i zoom in or out.
If you want CARB approved parts buy from Banks Power.
I'm lucky my 1986 M1009 CUCV with 6.2 has a government sticker exemption from light duty diesel emissions standards.
Banks stuff is great and Gale is smart as they come.
But their tunes on emissions trucks is weak. Like 60hp on the hot tune and maybe a little more for some platforms.
Others like Calibrated are already taunting compliant tunes for trucks that's 120hp or so on the tow or hot tune.
I have recently got a Super Gauge from Banks and like it a lot. Despite small screen. I have a Derringer but have not installed yet. I want the throttle Monster to take care of the lag. The prior 2 I got 2nd hand for a deal. The latter I am looking for the best deal. I'd say what I would have paid new for snappier throttle, 60hp and some viewed information, I would probably buy an BDX and custom compliant tune for a little more or close to the same and be much happier.
In the end I'd be way more happy to get tuned the old way with more power and less problem prone 'systems' hanging off the truck.
Whats the name of place in Ocala that cleans DPF filters that was mention?
We aren’t sure but hit up Hardway Performance and I’m sure they can direct you. Thanks for listening!
Why is there no open source forum for the end user? As someone that has been away from the diesel world for 10+ years I'm truly baffled.
Could you see the epa starting roadside emissions testing for personal pickup trucks?
They already do in certain states. Not fed level, state level only but the fines are big.
As far as you know what states are doing road side pick up emissions inspection ?
New Jersey state troopers will pull over trucks with loud exhaust and check for deleted dpf. A guy got busted for selling a deleted truck in New Jersey the state is making the guy part the truck out and crush it
Look up what they are presenting to do in California for even visiting/traveling vehicles. Includes large RVs and OTR Trucks mainly. So even if you are not registered in the state, they will fine you
@@mikeb6300 NJ, Pa, NY, va, (these 4 I can confirm) and heard Ct and mass as well but I don’t go up there.
And to think I got rid of my 09 cummins and the dealership gave me high trade in without even seeing it.. wonder why lol. That was in jan 16.. and now I'm trying to find an "older" 6.7, manual or course
My problem with all this is, now if you want a 600hp truck, you will have to pay $10,000 for a “package”, not because they want to rip everyone off. It’s because they have 100 of thousands of dollars invested in it.
Unless you can't buy the parts direct or they are exclusive for the one particular diesel shop/tuner/business, a package won't save the business. At the end of the day, all your doing is providing a tune that can be put on a cloud and dropped to a truck anywhere. A guy can buy the parts over time when the deals are available and then just buy the tune later. And the only other benefit is installing for the customer in which they would be local or close enough to drive. To even make up profit that doesn't exist would mean your shop rates at $200+/hr and the tune fee of at least $500.
Hello, I have been watching several of your podcast’s on the EPA overreach and enforcement of laws. As a son of a drag racer and mechanic for over 40 years it is very upsetting that the EPA puts all these rules and laws that have been enforced on the Automotive Industry since the 1970’s and no proof that it actually does anything to improve or reduce emissions the costs that are passed on to the consumer over the years and continue to deploy rules and regulations all WITH OUT having to provide any proof that it actually does anything at all to reduce anything except fuel mileage.
Now they are going after cattle ranchers because some scientist have proven that cow’s farting actually produce way more emissions than vehicles or power plants… This should absolutely wake people up but it hasn’t so I don’t know if people are really paying attention to what is actually going on.
As far as it involves the diesel community and the current fuel (crisis and cost) wouldn’t it be better to have a trucks or cars that use LESS fuel per mile and doesn’t pollute more than a few cows passing gas in a field? If the EPA would be required to show end results for their suggested changes then they wouldn’t have a leg to stand on with enforcement.
NOW it’s all put on the consumer to pay for all the damage that the enforced emissions does to their $80,000 truck that they need to work with. I personally believe that the government is involved in this to cycle vehicles every 5 years because after that it will be rusted out so bad by the brine they put on the roads or having to put $10,000 worth of emissions parts or worse a whole motor due to emissions damage.
My 20 year old Dodge won’t pass inspection due to the frame rotted out so bad from the brine on the roadway. Believe me I take care of my stuff and it was garage kept and washed once a week so it wasn’t due to negligence on my part.
IF people don’t wake up soon it’s going to get way worse!!
Thank you for your Podcast’s your doing a great job.
Can you do a follow up interview?
so basically if you delete never throw anything away. also sorry to ask this but could those guys just buy hp tuners? what am i missing here?
Good watch but could you have put any more ads on here man.
Smarter and smarter ask vw lol thanks for sharing
A competition vehicle is also subject to all emission laws, completely. Law: as long as this engine was certified by a manufacturer at any time, it is subject to emissions laws. The only engine not subject to emissions laws is a custom machined block. That's the law. Trust me, I worked in compliance and emissions at a major manufacturer. I scrapped my Audi racecar, couldn't use it or sell it.
Cat thievery in San Diego is rampant. If mine gets stolen no CARB cat's are available for sale. It's a '07 5.9. I have a standing offer of $30K for my '07 2500 regcab Cummins 5.9 G-56. 115K. I paid $31,750 from Dave Smith in Oct. '06.
Time for people to do there own work tuning not necessary if you del just disabling the functions and sensors
tune up to DEQ spec to get thru the test, then re- tune?
My man literally just admitted to fucking it up for everyone…. Should have kept everything open source instead of trying to turn a profit off of it and we would still be able to enjoy it. And I can’t blame him specifically but all the major tuning companies both diesel and gas did it to us. Can’t verify and track the underground open source but they wanted to make sure to do away with it as much as possible because it cut into their profits.
Open source is the answer!!
OS and commercial tuning are completely different things. Just because commercial tuning exists, doesn't mean OS can't.
Seems like a nice guy but the only problem I have is his inner politician coming to light. Halfway through and to the end he is referring to delete parts as crap, junk, billy bob's turbos, hilljack deletes, stuff that ruins trucks and bad sounding exhaust and so-on.
Yet 10 years ago he would swear up and down that the parts he sells or installs is the latest and greatest to get your $$, steer you towards a delete and tune package, input that Brand X is great and how great Y Brand exhaust sounds, and so-on.
I heard that to. I get it. In talking with my friends that are all following this...we suspect they have been given a script more or less that they have to follow on all of this. The truth doesn't matter...what the law says is what matters. Just a guess though, and if so, I understand. Don't like it, but I understand.
I assume you didn't hear the part when EPA came in on him. They fined him $45+k and he signed an agreement with the government. I'd change my ways also.
@@mrgoodtimes05 having to change your business is one thing due to fines and regulations.....your personal opinion is another. They can't force someone to say on a podcast or in personal conversation that certain parts are junk, etc. It's called freedom of speech.
He could very well go on front of a judge and jury stating all the reasons deletes, tunes and such are better but also say he will stop by the rules of law. The judge and jury aren't gonna censor him for his opinion.
But coming on trash talking parts and other people (people who still illegally delete tune) like they don't know what they are doing, after years and years of promoting, selling, installing, etc all this stuff yourself. Just doesn't set well.
Fine, go green, abide by today's law, accept you did illegal shit, pay your fines, change your business. No skin off my back.
But don't bash others doing the same thing you did, don't bash parts you made millions off of, etc. It's bad ethics
I am with you on that there is no way a stock truck with all that stuff is going to last or runs better that a delete truck
The EPA may not be writing his script, but when your life, career…family is threatened, people will step back and say what they think they have to say to salvage their livelihood. The good days are almost gone boys. Pretty soon, it will be taboo just to have a diesel motor with a shiny emissions compliant exhaust.
This guy glows
il stick with my 97 12valve thanks
I guess we are all going to inefficient gas vehicles and burn more fuel to do the same work. Bend over.
gas will never pull or last like a diesel why do all class 8 trucks, tractors ,dozers etc run diesel and not gas engines!
In Australia in 1985 it was already so strict that you had to get permission from your insurance company to put a higher performance cam in an engine. I don’t know what it’s like their now besides their Government having their heads up a dark smelly place.
Almost every single Aussie 4x4 rig on UA-cam is DPF deleted, and they all still have plates and run on the road.
@@dash456789
I forgot to state I was talking about cars.
rubbish
permission? you mean, they are going to raise your rates? that's not the same as permission.
You can buy drugs at stores now but diesel parts on he streets..
Exactly! No jail time or repercussions for selling crack in big cities…but a military veteran sells some truck parts and gets fined…others given felony charges. Woke, crying liberals ID diesel owners as too masculine and stomp their feet. Look at what’s going on right now! FBI raid on Trump?! A fake investigation on Jan 6 protesters…who had NO weapons going into the capital and if you were even THERE you could lose your job and the PRESIDENT says you are a terrorist?! Look up the director of the EPA. Look at him and read about him. It’s the entire government now. Yeah let’s move to new technology. Necessity and proven results will stop people from doing deletes. Don’t ruin our economy with your war on masculinity. No one rides in horse drawn carriages anymore. Carbon fuel will phase itself out over time. Ok I’m done.
i didn't catch the state, or was it feds? all states differ i think.
Feds.. epa is feds
So until dpf can sound like a diamond eye with a muffler,I’m buying gas and not selling my 7.3
But if I want to dig a mine shaft next to a river, then thats fine. Or rangers deleting trucks because they cant park anywhere without starting forest fires
Diesels are good for environment especially vw and mercedes and gmc
I own 3 powerstroke 16/18/and 21 they are all deleted also own 13 18 wheeler they are delete I live in tx they don’t care about emissions if you calibrate a stock truck just going to make parts break quickly is better to leave stock
You would think it would be a Privacy issue to release customers info.
1979 corvette was the biggest turd, beat in 1/4 mile by the 3/4 ton pickup with the 454
People wonder why old trucks are getting expensive 🤔
What happened to the employees and the customers?
Its thanks to stupid ass coal rollers and tuners that accept requests for smoky tunes that we can't have deletes anymore
So why can't I have a 1000-1500 hp street truck? I have a truck that never came with any sort of emissions equipment from the factory.
you may get under the wire since states may have a year they cut off the test requirement, like my state stops testing for cars older than 1976. None required.
I used to want a new diesel pickup truck & now I won't buy one EVER. Fuck this shit! They put out shit that does NOT work properly & then leave us stuck with the headaches from all the problems. Nope, no thanks!🖕🏾
Where and when you shift changes emissions. Simple as that.
How can the Federal Government mandate that 49 States follow regulations that they have no representation or ability to effect? CARB is solely regulated by a California.
Accepting that is no different than eliminating the FDA and stating we will use whatever standards Canada creates. There's no way that's constitutional. We have no way to elect officials in Canada or California. That's not how it works. Just like all EPA rulemaking is based on laws created by officials we choose by election. We cannot comment, dispute, or effect CARB regulations. it's a dictatorship for the other 49 States. Not lawful.
So the same guy lining his pockets with intact tuning is now screaming that once he was fined that it is just as good as not having an EGR and DPF in place when years ago he created a business on good tuning, removed egr and dpf because they were and still are more efficient, have less components able to fail and leave you stranded, and aren't recirculating oil and soot back into your intake making brownie batter throughout the intake system. Explain to me how these old issues are now suddenly alleviated with carb approved tuning?
Appears to be more of a sales pitch. It's unfortunate some of us are at the bended knee point to the over-reaching-government and have not found the solution to fight this or reach a compromise so we can all still enjoy some meaty diesel exhaust notes. This administration has shown its cards though, there never will be a compromise or a solution with this giant EV push, but that's a whole other topic...
talk to your officials and reps. Demand better for the average person who can't afford a new car or an EV. or it won't work for them.
if EPA really cared which they don't. we would all run Vapor fuels like propane no catalytic converter and no emissions needed whatsoever. propane burns at 99% efficiency. wait until we get the electrical grid Downs no more charging the electric cars and they can shut them off at any time.
EFIBYRYAN!
Why not just buy a pre emissions 3rd gen?
Main reason I have a 5.9 common rail.
because people want the latest and greatest, they love them heated and Ac'd seats and the 12" info screens.
Because 3rd gen.
most all old trucks are clapped out junk or are rotted to shit thats why!
I’m just a tad bit under the rust belt. Anything 10 years or older is probably going to have significant rust(unless it’s well kept, but then the price is going to be 5x as much)
So really it makes more sense to buy a truck a bit newer, and then delete it. Also where I am, they don’t really care about emissions, so that’s helps too.
The emissions in place tuning is definitely going to be a good market especially if you can get a better life span out of these trucks and even cars emissions systems. So many of these are just bad news
Planned obsolescence

In my opinion one of the reasons why were having all this problems with the EPA and all that stuff were guys they were out having fun they were driving down the road and it’s a whole there’s a Prius what’s wrong cola and before you know it those people on the Prius hey there whipping out their cell phones taking pictures and videos turning it into the PA or just some character who’s driving through a downtown area he smashes the throttle and put a bunch of shit on people heard and dressed nice for work all come back to bite us well anyway I have a 91.5 dodge with six in a row under the hood that’s why I go by six in a row jim from Kennerdell Pennsylvania oh by the way I have a HX 35 turbo on mine and also I have dynamite diesel stage two injectors it really helped it out and I had less smoke I’m trying to get more power through efficiency oh by the way one of the things I did was oh gasket matched my exhaust manifold to the head which is a stage to Hamilton cams head I want to get that head CNC ported that’ll make it even better for efficiency and also from the manifold to the turbine housing I open that up and flared it in about 3/4 of an inch we’re nice smooth transition I’ll tell you right now all that stuff really helps all right I agree with what you’re saying about not tampering with those trucks I’m trying to make mine run better like I said through efficiency OK have a good day❤😮
so if you're joe deleted you can't even drive your truck in his parking lot but his dealer friends can just drop off a deleted truck even if he's not there.
The reason to remove is so you won’t be broke down in the middle of no where . I personally don’t know anyone in a pickle . I wonder if this guy is just promoting his business. I want to do the right thing though .
Airforce guy playing warhero?....ok
This doesn't address the thousand of $$$ you'll pay when the DPF, DEF, EGR, CAT etc.... fails. 99.9% of diesel owner aren't interested in race power, they just want a dependable diesel that won't leave you doing 5 mph in limp more or worse. Not to mention shortening the life of the engine by recycling soot into the intake manifold.
are they having end goal doing all this to come after older stuff modification and right to repair ended by making it over complicated some may say can not ague a white horse black .history may say what happens just a question
A lot of this was brought on by coal rolling videos.
activists complaining. But yeah who needs black smoke.
Good luck with your dreams. these systems will never work. Look at semi's as I work on everyday. I just got the bill on fixing my 75k mile ram 10k dollars on a 45k truck. Shipping companies are going under everyday because the prices to fixing these systems.
This must have been what it was like for muscle car guys in the 1970s with those new-fangled catalytic converters.
Eventually, new and legal performance parts came along, along with chip reprogramming in newer sports cars.
I don’t see any reason why diesel trucks wouldn’t follow a similar path going forward.
In 2022 it feels like the gov wants to make Diesels so expensive and unreliable that people move to gas or EV. EV is the long game for all vehicles. I’m worried the age of cool Diesels is coming to an end
Emissions tuning just wont take off. The whole point of tuning was to improve the drivability, economy, power of the trucks, nice tow tunes with better shifting.
Now your lucky to get 30 HP, no more fuel economy while likely overworking the already pitiful emissions equipment.
There is only so many idiots willing to buy a power pack for a 2020 that will leave emissions intact, which will lead to constant regens or failures. There is no play left unless your talking about a pure farm truck red dye and all, or legit race truck. and with both those cases your new tuning will not impact.
Feels like time would be better spent fighting back the government over-react, via elections etc.
Always thought the "more black smoke" crowd was going to cause a reaction.
Im cool with being conpliant, but the sound is why im not. .... what a shame this is all
Government sucks
Biden says electric garbage for everyone 🤣
Epa gotm so bad he cant afford decent internet
