Jeep Grand Cherokee Full Delete Kit with Iron Loader Tuner (2014-2017)
The 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel 3.0 Delete Kit with Iron Loader Tuner combines selectable engine tuning with CAT/DPF race-pipe components and an EGR bypass kit for the 3.0L V6 WK2 platform. The delete kit addresses the factory DPF, DEF, SCR, and EGR systems while providing multiple power modes for off-road use.
What's Included in EcoDiesel Delete Kit
-
Iron Loader Tuner - The handheld tuner provides Stock Power, EcoPower, Race, Max, and Custom modes. The supplied tune changes ECM operation to match the selected power level and deleted emissions equipment.
-
Power-Level Tuning - The EcoDiesel Tuner supports factory-level output, +35 HP, +50 HP, up to +75 HP, or a vehicle-specific Custom file depending on the selected option.
-
CAT and DPF Race Pipe - The delete pipe replaces the restrictive factory catalyst and diesel particulate filter section using the applicable factory-style exhaust connection. The race pipe includes connection points for the supported sensors and exhaust layout.
-
EGR Bypass Kit - The EcoDiesel EGR Delete Kit includes a block-off plate, gaskets, sealing parts, and the required components to bypass the factory EGR valve and cooler circuit and stop exhaust gas recirculation through the intake path.
-
Delete Kit Installation Hardware - The kit includes the required clamps, gaskets, sensor bungs, fasteners, and mounting parts for the supplied race pipe and EGR delete components.
-
DEF / SCR Delete Tuning - The delete tune disables supported DEF dosing, SCR monitoring, regeneration requests, and emissions-related derate functions after the corresponding off-road components have been removed.
The delete kit uses a direct-fit race pipe rather than a selectable 4-inch or 5-inch exhaust system. Stainless steel construction should be confirmed for the exact race-pipe version supplied with the kit because the current product configuration does not state a specific stainless steel grade.
Vehicle Compatibility
The Jeep EcoDiesel Delete Kit fits 2014-2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee WK2 SUVs equipped with the factory 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 engine.

How the Delete Kit Works on Your 3.0 EcoDiesel
The delete kit combines exhaust-flow changes, EGR bypass parts, and Iron Loader engine tuning so the 3.0 EcoDiesel can operate correctly after the factory emissions equipment is removed.
-
Replaces the factory DPF and catalyst with the delete pipe.
-
Bypasses EGR flow to reduce soot recirculation through the intake.
-
Recalibrates the ECM for the deleted emissions equipment.
-
Disables supported DEF, SCR, regeneration, limp mode, and derate functions.
-
Provides selectable power levels for horsepower and throttle response.
The delete kit does not modify the CP4 high-pressure fuel system or increase the factory towing rating.
Installation Information
The EcoDiesel Delete Kit includes installation instructions covering CAT/DPF delete-pipe replacement, EGR valve and cooler bypass, sensor connections, and Iron Loader programming. An experienced owner with solid mechanical skills can install the bolt-on kit, although limited WK2 engine-bay access and EGR coolant connections make the delete installation more involved than a basic exhaust replacement.
Installation Process
-
Remove the factory CAT and DPF exhaust section.
-
Install the supplied delete pipe using the three-bolt flange connection.
-
Remove the factory EGR valve and cooler components.
-
Install the EGR delete block-off hardware and complete the coolant reroute.
-
Connect the Iron Loader tuner and flash the selected delete tune.
-
Verify all sensor connections and inspect the exhaust for leaks.
Delete kit installation time may increase because of corroded exhaust fasteners, restricted WK2 engine-bay access, previous modifications, or difficult EGR cooler connections.

No More Emissions Codes
Correct delete kit installation and matching Iron Loader tuning disable supported emissions-related diagnostic trouble codes associated with the removed DPF, DEF, SCR, and EGR systems. The delete tune also prevents supported regeneration, limp mode, and derate requests caused specifically by missing factory emissions equipment.
