I'm wrapping up my delete this weekend, the system is installed but I found a couple of maintenance items to resolve while everything is apart.

I have about 24 hours of work into it, granted I did it solo. That includes egr/swirl flaps/ thermostat. I don't think it's bad considering two estimates I had were for 20 hours of labor to install. All-in I'm right around $2k in parts and that was buying them on sale. If you take it to a shop I would expect $4-4500.

I'm the type of person who would rather tinker in the garage than go out drinking, so the time invested was rewarding for me. I also have a spare vehicle to drive. The work was fairly physical so I wouldn't recommend it on a bad back.

That being said, I'm excited to drive it and get back to the Dyno. If I wouldn't have done the work myself I probably wouldn't have done the mod just because I am cheap and this doesn't add value to an ever depreciating vehicle.

In your case, if you want to delete it - now is the time. If you're not sure... Then it's probably not worth the work. If you need nox sensors there are plenty of oem ones used. In fact at least one of mine has less than 15k run time on it. They are pretty simple to get to. Pm me if you want to make an offer or check out ebay for used ones. That would be my recommendation for anyone who isn't in a "hell yeah" state of mind about taking on a delete.
