Mercedes is one of the most protected brands in the chip tuning industry in terms of encryption. The Mercedes community in Europe has a large pool of available Stage files for the standard models. In the Mercedes commercial segment, Stage 1 focuses on torque. On modern high-output Mercedes, Bench reading is often required because of the encryption. The Mercedes premium segment is a high-output platform with Stage 2 potential. High-output Mercedes engines are premium-class with solid headroom for Stage 1.
