Hello. I got TunerPro and have a wifi obd2 connector. I need to find a xdf file and I can't find anything on google. Is there another software I need to grab files for me? I learn quick but need a helping hand haha
1998 Dodge Ram 2500 v10 8.0l 4x4
Edit: Never read to see that my vehicle isn't on the supported list for TunerPro!
Howdy!
Dodge stuff isn't a strong point here but a few of us are watching and learning. There is a thread with some links to tools but I really don't know if your truck is covered as it's probably a JTEC computer.

Feel free to add to the knowledge.
I'll post anything I find useful in helping write a tune for this truck... (For all the people googling and other curious members.)

- The SCT XCalibrator 3 will store up to 10 Custom Tune files, while storing the stock factory tune for easy restoration back to the stock configuration. These tunes work great for stock engines or engines with bolt-on type modifications.
Increased rev & speed limiter and reduce/remove tq mgmt where applicable.
High Speed Datalogging.
Reads and clears DTC codes.
Response & Gas Mileage.
Flashes PCM quickly & easily via OBDII diagnostic port. Retains Stock Program for easy restoration back to stock.
** If you choose this option and then want custom programming later it's $100 or $200 depending on the custom programming option needed."
Also has software to load tunes from PC to flasher. Now to learn how to tune? Do I have to buy SCT Advantage 3?
It also comes with some basic tunes but aren't editable.
Tunercat OBDII is only for GM products except where a couple of people have created their own definition files. I know little about the JTEC world but the tool you found above seems to have the market. There is a tool for SBEC controllers but even that one's not set up for the early Jeep vehicles. For some reason the Jeep and truck crowd just hasn't gotten together and done the same work as what's created the tools for Ford and GM.
Well I'm looking @ $350 for the flasher... Then I'll need Advantage 3 which is another $350?
Software says:
-Open the SCT Software, and then type in your Processor Code, or open an existing file that you have already created, or may have been e-mailed to you as an .mtf file.
-You are now looking at your PCM program. If you created a new file, you are looking at a STOCK file, as it would have come from the factory. If you are looking at an existing file, it may be edited, and you can view the changes by looking at the "history" tab at the bottom of the screen.
-Items to be edited are along the left hand column, and can be selected and expanded to view more items under their respective categories.
So that is how I can get my stock computer in file form... Now is that the only software that can read .mtf files? If so then everyone would be required to ALSO buy Advantage 3...
