I appreciate the suggestions! Any safety precautions I should keep in mind while performing this?
Absolutely, always wear safety goggles and gloves. Make sure you’re working in a well-ventilated area, especially if you’re working with any chemicals. Also, double-check your connections once you’re done to avoid any issues later.

Good call! What should I expect in terms of performance once the AFM is deleted?
You can expect a smoother ride and more consistent power delivery. Most users report an increase in throttle response and overall engine performance. Plus, you’ll eliminate the chances of AFM-related issues down the line.
That sounds great! Should I consider tuning adjustments after the delete?
Definitely! Tuning can optimize your engine’s performance. You might want to adjust your fuel maps and increase the RPM limits. Consult a professional tuner for the best results!
Are there any downsides or risks involved in doing the AFM delete?
Potential downsides can include voiding your warranty and slightly reduced fuel economy. Although, many find the trade-off totally worth it for the improved performance. Just weigh your options carefully!
That makes sense. I assume it could be a contentious topic among enthusiasts? Any thoughts?
For sure! Some folks are die-hard about keeping AFM because of fuel savings. Others prefer the power gains with a delete. It’s all about personal preference and what you want from your truck.
It’s interesting to see the divide! Does anyone have a success story to share?
After my AFM delete, I noticed a huge difference in acceleration, especially when towing. Plus, I haven’t had to deal with any AFM issues since! Totally recommend it if you’re on the fence.
Awesome feedback! I feel more motivated to tackle this myself! Thank you all for the advice!
Hey everyone! Removing the AFM can really enhance performance but be cautious. Check your state’s emissions regulations before diving in. You definitely don’t want to be on the wrong side of the law!
Absolutely! Performance is great, but remember to check with your dealership about warranty implications. They might void it if they find out.

It’s great to see this topic being discussed! I’ve been considering the AFM delete too. Just be sure to keep records of any mods you make.
Same here! But isn’t there a risk regarding emissions? Can we still pass inspection?
One thing to note is that states with strict emissions tests could flag an AFM delete. Make sure you know your local laws before you proceed.
You can’t forget about warranty risks! I heard that many dealers can void your warranty if they detect modifications.
Exactly. It’s such a bummer because performance upgrades are what we really want!
