What the car needs
Required modifications: Stage 2, Petrol.
Hardware
- Sport / decat downpipe (or sports-cat)
- High-flow air intake
- Optional: front-mount intercooler upgrade for sustained boost
Software / calibration
- Cat-warm-up & secondary lambda re-mapped for decat hardware
- Boost target raised in line with cooling capacity
- Knock / ignition advance re-trimmed
- Idle and load-transition tables refined
Stage 2 keeps the factory turbo and internals. Final figures vary slightly with the exact hardware fitted.

About this calibration file
The Stage 2 calibration for the 1999 Mercedes-Benz Ml 320 Petrol is written for vehicles with supporting bolt-ons: a higher-flow downpipe or sports catalyst, upgraded intercooler and upgraded intake are recommended. Boost targets, fuel-rail pressure, injector duration and VGT positioning are pushed further than a Stage 1 map while keeping exhaust-gas temperatures inside safe bands.
This file matches a Bosch ECU with hardware number 0261206053 and software version 356325. Verify both identifiers in your flashing tool before writing — an ID mismatch is the most common cause of a bricked ECU. If you are unsure, upload a read of your original file via the file-request wizard and our engineers will confirm compatibility before you flash.
Projected output on a healthy, stock-hardware example of this engine: 244 HP and 347 Nm at the crank — a gain of +26 HP (12%) and +37 Nm over the factory 218 HP / 310 Nm baseline. These numbers are sourced from our Vehicle Performance Database, which aggregates dyno results across this engine family. Real-world gains depend on fuel grade, ambient temperature, mechanical condition and intake/exhaust state.
The file is delivered as a ready-to-flash BIN (and ORI backup where applicable) compatible with all major tools — KESS V2/V3, KTAG, AutoTuner, CMDFlash, Dimsport New Genius, MPPS, Flex, BFlash, PCMFlash, MMFlash — via OBD, bench or boot-mode as supported by your ECU family. Checksums are pre-computed and verified; no additional checksum tool is required. All files include a free revision if post-flash logs reveal a fuelling, boost or EGT issue.
