If you want to get the most out of your Mercedes-AMG, you can't avoid professional chip tuning. But which tuning level is the right one? Many providers throw out terms like Stage 1, Stage 2 or Stage 3 without clearly explaining what they mean. ❌

At Stefanel Performance we know: Only a combination of ECU, CPC & TCU optimization really takes an AMG vehicle to the next level. 🚀

⚙️ What do Stage 1, Stage 2 & Stage 3 mean?

The three stages of chip tuning have clear differences in terms of performance improvement, necessary hardware adjustments and interventions in the control unit.

🔥 Stage 1 – Software optimization without hardware changes

  • ✔ Adjusting the ECU (engine control unit) for more power
  • CPC optimization to release torque and Vmax
  • Transmission adaptation (TCU) for faster shift times

Advantage: No hardware modifications necessary, 100% retrofittable .

⚙️ Stage 2 – More performance through hardware upgrades

  • ✔ Stage 1 software optimization + sports air filter & downpipes
  • ✔ CPC & TCU adjustment to maximize torque release
  • Optimized charge air cooling for temperature stabilization

Advantage: Noticeably more power due to better exhaust gas routing and cooling.

🔥 Stage 3 – Maximum performance with turbo upgrade

  • ✔ Stage 2 setup + high-performance turbocharger
  • Optimized fuel supply (high-pressure pumps, larger injection nozzles)
  • Gearbox software for extreme torques

Advantage: Radical performance increase with hardware tuning, but no longer suitable for everyday use.

🔥 Which stage is right for you?

Each level has its advantages, but not every one makes sense for every driver:

  • Stage 1 – Perfect for everyday use, no hardware changes .
  • Stage 2 – Ideal for performance enthusiasts, downpipes & intake system improve performance.
  • Stage 3Maximum performance for track & drag racing, but requires extensive modifications.
