Iron Loader V2 Delete Tuner | Ram 1500 EcoDiesel 3.0L | 2014-2017

Description

Iron Loader V2 is an OBD-II flash tuner for 2014–2017 RAM 1500 trucks equipped with the 3.0L EcoDiesel engine. Using the PowerGate mobile app and Bluetooth connection, the device reads the factory ECU file and provides the workflow for installing a custom calibration. Available options range from stock-power economy tuning to +75 HP, with separate calibrations for emissions-on, emissions-off, towing, performance, and modified-engine applications.

What’s Included

Vehicle Compatibility

The RAM Ecodiesel DPF delete tuner is designed specifically for:

Each Iron Loader V2 is paired with the supported vehicle rather than operating as a universal multi-truck programmer.

How work?

The 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 RAM Ecodiesel DPF delete tuner connects directly to the truck through the factory OBD-II port and communicates with the PowerGate app over Bluetooth. During initial setup, Iron Loader V2 reads the stock ECU file, which is submitted so the selected custom tune can be prepared. Once the calibration is available, it is loaded through the Iron Loader workflow and flashed back to the ECU. This process does not require ECM removal or bench programming.

Features

The 2014-2017 RAM 1500 Ecodiesel tuner Iron Loader V2 offers several calibrations instead of forcing every truck into the same performance setup. Available options cover stock-power economy use, emissions-on performance, emissions-off configurations, towing, higher-power driving, and modified engines.

Iron Loader V2 uses a single-file tuning system rather than SOTF. This means the selected tune is programmed into the ECU instead of switching between multiple horsepower settings while driving. The original stock calibration is also retained through the tuning workflow so the ECU can later be returned to the appropriate factory file.

Tuning & Settings

The RAM Ecodiesel Iron Loader V2 delete tuner provides multiple tune choices for different vehicle configurations and driving requirements.

StockPlus is the important exception in this lineup: it keeps the emissions system active while providing a +35 HP calibration. The other standard performance options shown as emissions-off tunes are intended for the corresponding modified configuration.

Key Benefits

Up to +75 HP
The Max calibration provides the highest listed power increase for the applicable stock engine and turbo setup.

Multiple Purpose-Built Tunes
Choose between Economy, StockPlus, EcoPower, Race, Tow, Max, and Custom options instead of relying on one generic tune.

Emissions-On Option
StockPlus provides +35 HP while retaining the factory emissions configuration, giving owners an alternative to an emissions-off tune.

No ECM Removal
The Ecodiesel 1500 RAM tuner for DPF delete reads and programs the ECU through the truck’s OBD-II connection.

Return-to-Stock Capability
The original ECU calibration is saved during the tuning process and can be flashed back when returning the truck to the appropriate factory configuration.

Installation Information

Iron Loader V2 plugs into the RAM’s factory OBD-II port. With the ignition on and engine off, connect a compatible iOS or Android device to the tuner through Bluetooth and use PowerGate to perform the stock ECU read. The factory file is then submitted for preparation of the selected custom calibration.

Custom tune preparation typically takes about 1–2 business days after the required stock file and vehicle information have been received. Once the completed file is available, follow the supplied workflow to write it to the ECU.

A battery charger should be connected during ECU reading and programming to maintain stable voltage. Never disconnect the tuner, interrupt communication, or switch off vehicle power while a flash is in progress.
