Chip tuning for Mercedes Actros 460 455hp (335kW) 2200Nm ECU
Mercedes Actros (I (1995+)) 460 455hp (335kW) 2200Nm — premium diesel engine of the commercial segment of the Mercedes-Benz Group AG (Mercedes-Benz, AMG, Maybach, Smart, EQ) group (Германия, 1926). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 455 to 525 hp (+70 hp, +15%) and torque from 2200 to 2530 Nm (+330 Nm). The 1995 generation — first-generation CDI/TDI/HDi diesels with relatively simple ECU protection; OBD reading works directly.
Mercedes is one of the most protected brands in the chip tuning industry in terms of encryption. Maybach is Mercedes's ultra-luxury sub-brand. Mercedes-Benz is the world's oldest carmaker, founded in 1926 by the merger of Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft and Benz & Cie. Mercedes diesels are known for smooth, quiet running, a hallmark of the premium segment. Mercedes diesels have long been known for legendary reliability, with German taxi fleets running to million-kilometre mileages. Mercedes pioneered CDI (Common-rail Direct Injection) technology on passenger-car diesels, in series production since 1997.
The Mercedes community in Europe has a large pool of available Stage files for the standard models. Stage 1 on Mercedes often requires refreshing the adaptations after the flash. In the Mercedes commercial segment, Stage 1 focuses on torque. AMG Performance Studio is Mercedes's in-house tuning studio for bespoke projects. Bench reading is a mandatory procedure for modern AMG models. Top AMG engines sit at the Mercedes power ceiling, and the gain is significant. AMG engines are a well-known base once hardware is added (downpipe + intake + intercooler).
