Do the dpf delete first because with the mini max your egr will be turned off anyway as long as you run dpf delete tuning on mild or hd. Easy settings still cycle your egr.

The EGR removal is a LOT more difficult than replacing the exhaust. If you want to get ahead of the game, I'd say go for it. Replacing your exhaust will seem like a walk in the park after pulling your EGR. If your truck is tuned with the Mini Maxx it's already turned off the EGR, so you're good to go.

Do any of the DPF ON tunes disable the EGR? If not, removing the EGR before being able to run an emission OFF tune will most likely cause a check engine light and maybe drivability issues... Just a thought?

You have to load the dpf removed tuning to disable the egr system.
