Hey guys new to the forum. I have 2011 3500 megacab w 15k. Doing h&s egr valve delete and downpipe/dpf delete also h&s. Have a smarty jr. that I Need to update to me software. Any tips tricks or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also any tips to prolong the life of my 68rfe? I will Probly stick w the 70hp tune. More of a daily driver. Light towing every other weekend.

Take your time, and first and foremost, install the Smarty BEFORE deleting. You do this to make sure there are no ECM communication issues before dropping off all the hardware. It's a bad day to find out the tuner won't load and then all the egr and DPF stuff is off. The truck will go into limp mode and you know have a driveway paperweight.

Also, make sure you,are updated to the ME tune before installing.

Thank you for the input. Do I need to go back to stock before updating to me version?

Nope....you can update the smarty all day long. It does not affect the stock saved tune. You can update a million times and in 10 years, theoreticly, load your stock tune back.

There is an extra wiring harness on the cooler tube on my 2011. I can't find any info on what to do w it. My h&s instructions don't show it. Do I just unplug it and zip tie w the egr motor? It looks like some sort of pressure sensor.

Yes... That's fine. Most people call it the cross over tube.

Correct, the 10-12 has this sensor, just unplug it and you will be fine.

First off. Thanks a lot you guys have helped quite a bit already. But I have another annoying ? Is there a good thread or website w pics on exactly what to do w the sensors. I think I got it down but just want to be 100%. Been reading threads and confusing myself. Lol
H&s downpipe/dpf delete pipe no bungs

 

[unit74]

You talking about the exhaust, right? Just unplug them all and store away. Some wrap electrical tape around the remaining harness plug to keep water out. Shibby also makes a sano plug kit but it's $$$$ for what you get.

 

[CDD67]

Yes the exhaust. What about the part that plugs into the tranny? Read a few threads talking about unplugging that and most say leave it plugged in. Still waiting for pipes so I have no instructions yet. A lot of people saying they are not very clear and no pics.

 

[CDD67]

Just trying to be very careful. Can't afford to have a driveway paperweight. Lol
And wtf is a sig and where do I find it. Again like the sign in name says NEWBIE!!!
