Chip tuning for Mercedes Actros 580 578hp (425kW) 2700Nm ECU
Mercedes Actros (I (1995+)) 580 578hp (425kW) 2700Nm — 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 578 to 665 hp (+87 hp, +15%) and torque from 2700 to 3105 Nm (+405 Nm). Diesel engines built in 1995 — the era of classic Common Rail without strong 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. The Mercedes slogan is 'Das Beste oder nichts' ('The best or nothing'). 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. Mercedes diesels have long been popular with the German police and taxi services.
AMG engines confidently reach Stage 2 with a downpipe + intake. Mercedes is one of the most protected brands in the chip tuning industry in terms of encryption. The AMG community is active in Germany, but the protection is the toughest in the industry, so Stage 1 on AMG usually requires Bench. 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). Brabus is a premium alternative to AMG for the top models.
