Chip tuning for MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm ECU
MAN TGS (I) TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm — commercial diesel engine of the commercial segment of the TRATON Group (Volkswagen Truck & Bus) group (Германия, 1758). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 480 to 550 hp (+70 hp, +15%) and torque from 2300 to 2645 Nm (+345 Nm).
MAN shares some engines and platforms with Scania within TRATON. MAN is part of the TRATON Group (the Volkswagen Truck & Bus division). The TGS, TGX and TGM are MAN's main truck series. 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 factory calibration is conservative, leaving headroom for Stage 1 while preserving engine life.
The truck chip tuning community is an industry of its own, focused on long-haul routes. The professional logistics segment tunes for fuel consumption and pulling characteristics. Top MAN units sit at the power ceiling of the European truck segment.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Stage 1 effect on the MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm?
Stage 1 for the MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm adds +70 hp — power increases from 480 to 550 hp (+15%). Torque rises from 2300 to 2645 Nm (+345 Nm).
What does a Stage 1 remap of the MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm include?
Stage 1 is a software optimization of the factory ECU firmware of the MAN TGS with no hardware changes. The injection, boost, ignition-timing and torque maps are reprogrammed. The gain is +70 hp with no hardware changes.
Does Stage 1 make sense on the MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm with this much power?
On the top-spec MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm engine, Stage 1 is the starting point before Stage 2 with a downpipe, intake and a larger intercooler. The mass-market factory calibration leaves substantial headroom for an aggressive software tune.
What is Stage 2 for the MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm?
Stage 2 for the MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm is Stage 1 plus hardware changes: a downpipe, a larger intake and a performance intercooler. The gain is considerably higher, but it requires professional component selection.
Does the factory warranty of the MAN TGS remain valid after Stage 1?
After remapping the MAN TGS, the official factory warranty on the engine and gearbox is lost (this applies to any manufacturer when the ECU is modified). CHIPOK guarantees the quality of the calibration and free revisions.
How long is the wait for a Stage 1 remap for the MAN TGS?
Reading and writing via OBD takes 25-30 minutes on the MAN TGS. Bench reading (BDM/JTAG) takes about 60 minutes plus refitting. Remote file processing at CHIPOK takes 5-30 minutes.
How do you roll back to the factory firmware of the MAN TGS?
Before Stage 1 the original of the MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm is read out and saved — returning to the factory state is possible at any time.
How much does chip tuning the MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm cost?
The remap price for the MAN TGS TGS 480 480hp (353kW) 2300Nm is dynamic and is calculated in the CHIPOK calculator based on the selected options. A credit-based payment model, with no subscription fees.
