Chip tuning for MAN TGM TGM 240 240hp (176kW) 925Nm ECU

MAN TGM (I) TGM 240 240hp (176kW) 925Nm — commercial diesel engine of the commercial segment of the TRATON Group (Volkswagen Truck & Bus) group (Германия, 1758). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 240 to 275 hp (+35 hp, +15%) and torque from 925 to 1065 Nm (+140 Nm).

MAN specialises in heavy trucks and long-haul tractor units. MAN shares some engines and platforms with Scania within TRATON. MAN is part of the TRATON Group (the Volkswagen Truck & Bus division). Truck diesels carry an extended set of maps for commercial load, with the focus on torque. DPF/SCR with AdBlue is standard on modern Euro-6 truck engines. Truck chip tuning is a discipline of its own, focused on fuel consumption and pulling power rather than peak output.

The truck chip tuning community is an industry of its own, focused on long-haul routes. On high-output trucks, Stage 1 reduces fuel consumption under load. The professional logistics segment tunes for fuel consumption and pulling characteristics. High-output MAN units are long-haul tractors with solid headroom for Stage 1.
