Ford 6.4 Powerstroke full delete kit with Mini Maxx V2 Tuner (2008-2010)
The 2008, 2009, 2010 Ford 6.4 Powerstroke Full Delete Kit with Mini Maxx V2 combines preloaded tuning, a 4-inch DPF/CAT delete pipe or optional 5-inch exhaust, and a complete EGR valve/cooler removal kit. The kit reduces restriction, stops regeneration after correct calibration, and provides selectable power levels for off-road Super Duty pickups.
What's included in delete kit
-
Mini Maxx V2 Tuner - The preloaded 6.4 Powerstroke tuner connects through OBD-II, monitors engine data, reads/clears DTCs, and provides menu-selectable power modes. Custom tunes are not supported.
-
4-Inch DPF/CAT Delete Pipe - Made from T-409 stainless steel and designed to replace the factory particulate filter and catalyst while retaining the factory Downpipe. Includes clamps, hangers, fasteners, and the required mounting hardware.
-
5-Inch Exhaust System - Free-flowing exhaust option designed for increased volume and reduced restriction. Includes the required clamps, hangers, and installation hardware.
-
EGR Valve & Cooler Delete Kit - The 6.4 Powerstroke EGR delete kit removes the EGR valve and cooler with block-off plate, gaskets, and hardware.
Vehicle compatibility
The Mini Maxx V2 kit fits 6.4L Ford Super Duty pickups.

How the delete kit works on your Ford 6.4 Powerstroke
-
Loads the Mini Maxx V2 calibration before hardware removal.
-
Removes DPF and catalyst restriction to stop regeneration.
-
Eliminates EGR recirculation to reduce intake soot and clogging.
-
Reduces backpressure and EGTs under sustained load.
-
Matches power levels to truck use for towing or performance.
The 6.4 Powerstroke DPF delete kit must be tuned with no active codes before hardware removal.
Installation information
The kit includes an installation guide for bolt-on exhaust and EGR hardware. Keep a manual 10A battery charger connected whenever the ECM is flashed.
Tune with no active codes before emissions removal. Never interrupt Mini Maxx V2 during flashing. Seized hardware can add time. The Mini Maxx V2 installation guide specifically requires a charger during ECM flashing and tuning before emissions-system removal.

No More Emissions Codes
Correct Mini Maxx V2 calibration included with the delete kit prevents emissions-related warnings caused specifically by the removed DPF, catalyst, EGR, and associated exhaust sensors. Normal diagnostics remain active for unrelated engine, transmission, turbocharger, fuel-system, wiring, and sensor faults.
