DPF stands for diesel particulate filter and the 2007.5 and up trucks have it or did from the factory, IT SUCKS
Banks tuners work with the emissions and you cant delete the DPF, EGR or some times the CAT without a programmer like the Quadzilla
The Quad can also change the speedo for bigger tire and remove the speed limiter, thats why you will see some of the older trucks staking the Banks with the Quad too

I have the banks Economind stacked with the Granatelli. The Granatelli is the only one, that I found, which could recalibrate for bigger tires, (the speedo), and gear change. (Kept getting the SRS & brake light due to the gear change). Apperantly there is something on the front diff. that the computor reads?
It's spot on, checked it with the GPS.
Brought the info station's "Avg. Economy" back within a couple of MPG of accuracy.
I only use the Granitelli for recalibration, keep the Economind on step 6. No problems for over a year now!

Does the EFI LIVE re-program the ECM when you change the gearing?
The ECM reads something on the front diff. that will flash the SRS & Brake light when the gearing is changed. Not even the dealer could reprogram it, they were the ones who turned me on to the Granatelli.

ok... why pay the money for 2 tuners when you can get EFI Live for that money? thats just my take on things
Some people like myself bought the Banks and didnt realize you couldnt correct the speedo or at some point decided they want to delete the DPF
