Chip tuning for Mercedes Actros OM470 SCR 10.7 (EU6) 428hp (315kW) 2100Nm ECU

Mercedes Actros (I (1995+)) OM470 SCR 10.7 (EU6) 428hp (315kW) 2100Nm — 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 428 to 478 hp (+50 hp, +12%) and torque from 2100 to 2410 Nm (+310 Nm). Diesel engines built in 1995 — the era of classic Common Rail without strong encryption.

AMG is the performance division of Mercedes (since 1967), building engines on the 'one man, one engine' principle in Affalterbach. 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. On older Mercedes diesels, Stage 1 is flashed over OBD with no complications. 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.

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. Brabus is a premium alternative to AMG for the top models. 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.
