PPE just for regen deleat?

This is just a hypothetical question but as I read speedpro's saga about his warranty being denied because he had gauges in his truck it got me thinking about something else.

what if you towed for a living and traded in your 2005 or any other year Dmax or any other kind of truck for that matter for brand a new 08, and when you got that 08 set up to haul realized it was getting 2-3mpg less then your old truck with 300,000mi on it. What would you do?

I was thinking what if you cut the DPF off the truck and ran a PPE at the stock setting but with the regen turned off and codes reset? im not even sure if you can do this? What im thinking is that sure your exhaust and DPF would be voided from warranty work but what about the rest of the truck? You would not be adding power so the tranny should still be ok? You would not be adding fuel so the injector pump and everything else should be ok? You would not be added power so the rear end and everything in between should be ok right?

What im saying is do you think you could get away with something like this if you had to take it to court?
