FAQ
Will this fit all 2003–2007 6.0L Super Duty models?
Yes, it is designed for F-250/F-350 6.0L trucks equipped with a catalytic converter.
What’s the difference between DS6206 and DA6206?
DS6206 is T409 stainless (Armor Plus) for superior corrosion resistance; DA6206 is aluminized (Armor Lite) for value pricing.
Do I need tuning after installing this downpipe?
No tuning is required for a stock truck; however, pairing with proper tuning and a full MBRP system can maximize gains.
Will this reduce EGTs?
Yes—improved flow typically helps lower exhaust gas temperatures under load.
What other parts pair well with this?
Consider a full MBRP turbo-back system like S6212PLM or S62240PLM, and the FAL2313 up-pipe.
