Chip tuning for Scania R-series 230 230hp (169kW) 1050Nm ECU
Scania R-series (I) 230 230hp (169kW) 1050Nm — commercial diesel engine of the commercial segment of the TRATON Group (Volkswagen Truck & Bus) group (Швеция, 1891). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 230 to 265 hp (+35 hp, +15%) and torque from 1050 to 1210 Nm (+160 Nm).
The Scania V8 is the iconic engine of the flagship tractor units. Scania is a Swedish manufacturer of trucks and buses, founded in 1891. Scania specialises in premium trucks and long-haul tractor units. The factory calibration is conservative, leaving headroom for Stage 1 while preserving engine life. High-output diesels head the truck segment, and Stage 1 is especially felt in Nm. Mid-generation truck models use standard OBD read/write.
The truck chip tuning community is an industry of its own, focused on long-haul routes. On high-output trucks, Stage 1 reduces fuel consumption under load. The professional logistics segment tunes for fuel consumption and pulling characteristics. High-output MAN units are long-haul tractors with solid headroom for Stage 1.
