Bobcat DEF DOC And EGR Deletes: Boost Your Bobcat Equipment’s Performance and Efficiency
February 11, 2023If you own a Kubota SVL95 skid steer loader, you already know it’s a powerhouse built for tough jobs in construction, agriculture, and industrial settings. However, factory-installed emissions systems like DEF, DPF, and EGR can hold this machine back, leading to reduced performance, frequent downtime, and costly maintenance. At TM Ag Tuning, we specialize in deleting these systems—DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid), DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter), and EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation)—to optimize your Kubota SVL95, boosting it to an impressive 117 horsepower while improving efficiency and reliability. By sending us your ECU (Engine Control Unit) and DCU (DEF Control Unit), we’ll unlock your skid steer’s true potential with a custom tune and even offer premium stainless steel replacement mufflers to complete the upgrade. Let’s dive into what these systems are, why they can be problematic, and the game-changing benefits of removing them.
What Are DEF, DPF, and EGR Systems on the Kubota SVL95?
To understand why deleting these systems can transform your Kubota SVL95, it’s essential to know what they do and how they impact your machine.
- DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid): The DEF system injects a urea-based fluid into the exhaust stream to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, helping the Kubota SVL95 meet stringent environmental regulations. While this sounds eco-friendly, it comes with a catch: the system relies on a DEF tank, pump, and sensors that can fail, especially in remote or rugged environments. Running out of DEF or dealing with a malfunction can put your skid steer into limp mode, slashing power and productivity.
- DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter): The DPF is designed to capture soot and particulate matter from the exhaust, burning it off periodically through a process called regeneration. While this reduces emissions, it’s a double-edged sword. Regeneration cycles sap fuel, increase engine heat, and can clog the filter if incomplete, leading to downtime, reduced performance, and expensive repairs. For operators who need their Kubota SVL95 running at peak capacity, the DPF often feels like a liability.
- EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation): The EGR system recirculates a portion of the exhaust gases back into the engine to lower combustion temperatures and cut NOx emissions. However, this process introduces carbon buildup, clogs intake systems, and reduces engine efficiency over time. For a high-performance machine like the Kubota SVL95, EGR can choke power and shorten engine life, making it a common pain point for owners.
These emissions systems, while mandated for compliance, often frustrate Kubota SVL95 owners with their complexity and maintenance demands. That’s where TM Ag Tuning steps in with our expert DEF, DPF, and EGR delete services.
Why Delete DEF, DPF, and EGR on Your Kubota SVL95?
Removing these systems isn’t just about bypassing regulations—it’s about unleashing your skid steer’s full capabilities. Here’s why a DEF, DPF, and EGR delete from TM Ag Tuning is a game-changer for your Kubota SVL95:
- Boosted Horsepower to 117 HP: With our custom tuning process, we take your Kubota SVL95 from its factory output to an impressive 117 horsepower. By eliminating the restrictive emissions systems and optimizing the ECU and DCU, your skid steer becomes one of the most powerful in its class, ready to tackle any job with ease.
- Improved Fuel Efficiency: DEF injections and DPF regenerations burn extra diesel, while EGR reduces combustion efficiency. Deleting these systems streamlines your engine’s operation, cutting fuel consumption and saving you money over time—especially critical for long hours on the job site.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs and Downtime: Say goodbye to DEF pump failures, DPF clogs, and EGR-related repairs. Without these systems, your Kubota SVL95 requires less upkeep, meaning fewer trips to the shop and more time getting work done. Plus, no more DEF refills or filter cleanings to worry about.
- Enhanced Engine Longevity: EGR carbon buildup and DPF backpressure put unnecessary stress on your engine. Removing them reduces wear and tear, keeping your Kubota SVL95’s engine running smoother and longer—protecting your investment for years to come.
- Smoother, Uninterrupted Performance: No more regen cycles interrupting your workflow or limp mode stalling your progress. With DEF, DPF, and EGR gone, your skid steer delivers consistent, reliable power, letting you focus on the task at hand.
- Cooler Operating Temperatures: Without the DPF forcing high-temperature regenerations, your Kubota SVL95 runs cooler, reducing strain on components and improving overall durability in demanding conditions.
How TM Ag Tuning Makes It Happen
At TM Ag Tuning, we’ve perfected the process to delete DEF, DPF, and EGR on your Kubota SVL95 with precision and expertise. Here’s how it works:
- Send Us Your ECU and DCU: To perform the delete and tune, we require your skid steer’s ECU (Engine Control Unit) and DCU (DEF Control Unit) to be shipped to our facility. These units control the engine and emissions systems, and our technicians need them in-house to apply our custom modifications. Don’t worry—we provide clear instructions and ensure a fast turnaround.
- Custom Tuning to 117 HP: Once we receive your ECU and DCU, our team analyzes the software, removes the DEF, DPF, and EGR functions, and applies a high-performance tune. This boosts your Kubota SVL95 to 117 horsepower, optimizing power delivery and efficiency for your specific needs.
- Stainless Steel Replacement Mufflers: After the delete, we recommend replacing the DPF with our premium stainless steel replacement mufflers. Crafted for durability and performance, these mufflers enhance exhaust flow, reduce backpressure, and stand up to the toughest conditions—all while keeping your skid steer running smoothly.
- Shipped Back and Ready to Roll: Once the tuning is complete, we ship your ECU and DCU back to you. Reinstall them, pair them with our stainless steel muffler, and enjoy a transformed Kubota SVL95 that’s more powerful, efficient, and reliable than ever.
