I found these guys that have started doing the Eco-diesel tuning - here in Canada, so not bound by EPA rules. lol

Dodge RAM- Jeep ECODIESEL Tuning « Light Speed Innovations

lightspeedinnovations.com

Not sure how good they are, but there is an alternative if GDE does not come back. Pricing is comparable to GDE (in CAN$).

i didn't see where they turn off the egr

assuming nothing changes in the next few months i think i'm selling mine ... these newer diesels suck w/o tune and I'm not paying for another one that I don't really own (cue bounty hunter to come in and tell me to calm down ad nauseum)

Glad I've made such an impact that you think of me often lol.

Yes, I agree the website is a bit vague on what exactly they all do, but they do offer an EGR delete kit, so I would assume they make the programming changes. It is also mentioned that they will tune to your specifications (custom race tune if you like). They call the basic a stage 1 tune, so one would assume they offer others...

I find it HIGHLY ironic that while these tunes prominently slam you with "YOU MUST AGREE THAT THIS IS FOR OFFROAD ONLY AND ILLEGAL OTHERWISE !".... While every one of their features and benefits exudes the increase in performance for ON road uses, and every one of their reviews ( including one from California !) clamor their exuberance for everything the tune has done for them while towing and on road... !!

According to their FB page they have shipped a lot to the US - but they also sell out fast as well. Best to contact them directly.

 

[sardo_67]

i sent them an email and they do ship to the US. seeing as there is a lot of government douche baggery going on here i may need to pick up some stuff now even before i get the jeep

Im pretty interested in moving on this once they get back in stock. Love the idea of the OBD flash tool

Update, pulled the trigger on the tune from ecodiesel owners as well as one of their CAC delete pipes. I live in Birmingham, AL and they will be here Tuesday.

I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the process and results as I am still on the fence.

Any updates on this?

Long story, but because this is the first tuner with the ability to use an OBD Flash device, it requires them to build up a catalog of stock files. They just started using these a few months ago so they did not have one for the Jeep ecodiesel yet, only the Ram.

I am helping them get the file, They arranged for a diesel tuner about an hour from me to bench scan my ECU and send it up to them. Once they have my file, this will not be an issue for anyone else anymore.

I'll update again after it gets done.
