How bad was it to install , and did you need a tuner to get rid of egr code?

Takes about 6-10 hours to install depending on your level of skill. Yes you do need a tuner to delete the egr so you don't have a cel.

Yes it does come already with the DPF delete tunes preloaded and ready. If you need the egr delete tuning you will need to download them from Spartan at no charge.

No. This is an off road only system. A tuner must be used to bypass the CEL and you likely won't pass the visual smog inspection.

I can't speak for this on your application, but on my 2012 Chevy Cruz Turbo, I could tell a little bit difference, but I had nothing but a bad experience with the Bully Dog 40415. My car would would just all of a sudden loose power, the gauges would die, and I would have to wiggle the connector at the OBD II to get my car to run again, ultimately I'd have to re-install the tune to get my car to run right at all again. Until they can solve this issue I wold NOT recommend this item. I just this week have sent this back and purchased another type of power tuner.

Jon, let me clarify. I was able to turn the check engine icon off in my 07sts. the (minor) problem may still exist in some form but i was able to turn the light off which is all I wanted for my used car with 120k miles. The scanner allows you to check what the code is decipher it (with cheatsheet) and elect to turn it off or not. I hope this helps. GSJ

Sorry it took so long to get back with you. Son did the installation on the car. He said one bracket for the ecu and the fuse box. And the other bracket was for the battery and the coolant overflow. It comes with everything that you need. My son wants you to know that the filter sits extremely low, practically on the bottom on the bumper. But other than that great kit, great cold air intake, highly recommended. Let me know if you have any other questions.

It is not necesaary to make any tune, just installed mine with a Torqued Performance AP map to maximize power output. These maps are more agressive than the ones I researched at Cobb Tuning or other supplier.

Late build. The early build used a round cooler. If this is bad you most likely need a new oil cooler. Do not change egr cooler without oil cooler replacement. You will have repeat failure of egr cooler.

Yes I did have issues, they said that the exhaust would bolt right up and when I received the system it did not. When I contacted them they told me that I may need an adapter pipe. The system was coming up short at the rear mid pipe, about 3 inches or so. So I had to go and pay someone to fix it locally. I recommend spending a little more money for the right part.

A quick call or email to Dynojet would be my suggestion. They were very prompt in their responses to me. I don't think this really qualifies as a new brain for the bike but it is more than a tuner. I think you'll be happy with it if you buy it, especially since you should already have O2 sensors. I learned after the fact that I did not, and my little mechanic down the road actually does have a dyno, so I ended up needing to buy the additional equipment so I could auto tune. But at least my bike it future proof now.

If you can get it to work! I have had mine for over a year and it still does not work. Calls to the tech support line went unanswered. I did get ONE repsonse from me emails; they told me to ignore the install instructions and "just plug it in".......considering this has fried other peoples ECU I have just given up; better to have my truck running than burn a $1,000 ECU. Good luck if you buy this.

I wish I had an answer for you. All I can tell you is that their cat converters are not good. It did nothing but set off my check engine light. The only cure was to replace it with a GM original equipment converter to eliminate the problem. I forced Magnaflow to pay for it including labor at a local repair shop.

No, you have to buy a programmer called Race ME in order to delete the EGR/DPF

@Jake Schnetzer no I did not throw a check engine light, make sure it is a 90degree angle spacer so you will eliminate your chance of getting a fault at all. Since then I have bought a APR tune with certain deletes attached so I don't have to run the spacer anymore the tune helps. Good exhaust tho would recommend purchasing better 3" exhaust clamps as the ones they provide are pretty hard to deal with.

K&N says no but it is highly recommended. It wont damage anything without a tune but youll get the most out of it with one. If you just have this intake and the rest of the car is stock, the computer will try and re-learn the Air/fuel ratio and adjust automatically. But again, its always HIGHLY recommended to get a tune in search of power.

Mines been completely perfect! I just run it stock and change my tire size and gear ratio and I get better mpg than any of the tunes, just don't try to put 1000 hp in the engine and you'll be fine.

You need a tuner for the dpf delete or you will throw a code. As far as install goes it was pretty simple, however I had to trim a couple pieces for it to fit correctly.
