[QUOTE="griz700rocket, post: 679807, member: 11031"] Just bought my truck a few weeks ago and it did it's first regen right after I installed my Mini Maxx last night. Wasn't sure what it was doing at first as I was getting ready to shut it off after parking it. Just as I was about to turn the key the idle started climbing. At first I thought something on the tuner was wrong but then I remembered reading that the idle increases during regen. I decided to wait it out and let it finish the regen cycle. I popped the hood and turned the heat on to help with cooling. Switched my Mini Maxx over to EGT as the main guage and was surprised when it was reading 900+. Idle steadied out a hair over 1k and it took a little over 20 min to complete the regen. At the end the highest egt logged was 924. I'm assuming this was all completely normal? Is it easier on the motor to regen at idle or running down the road? If down the road is better what's the best RPM/Speed? I have a DPF delete pipe in my shop but I'm waiting on Matt to write me a custom tune as he's on his way to TS at the moment. So until I can get it deleted I'd like to know as much as I can about this retarded regen cycle. [/QUOTE]
