The DPF is an emissions device that stops most soot particles from leaving the exhaust system in layman's terms. It is restrictive and creates a lot of heat. The Magnaflow DPF back you have is just jewelry, it doesn't do much if anything to the performance of the truck.
A 4" turbo dp back system from an older body style truck and a Quadzilla Stealth II, PPE Race or Edge EVO Race will waken it up, pick up the mileage and lower EGT's by about 200°.
If you have an specific questions, shoot me a PM, and I would be more than happy to help you out.
