Assessment
The Scania Trucks R-Serie 230 is a turbocharged diesel engine producing 230 BHP and 1050 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 265 BHP and 2110 Nm — a gain of around 35 BHP (15%) and 1060 Nm (101%).
This engine scores highly for remap suitability, with gains weighted towards torque — you will notice the difference most strongly in mid-range pulling power and in-gear acceleration. The tuning headroom is classified as high, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.
Considerations: High tuned torque: check transmission torque capacity and service history.. Large torque increase: drivetrain condition (clutch/gearbox) becomes more important at this level.
Fuel economy note: economy gains unlikely at full power; depends on driving style.
All figures shown are typical estimates based on aggregated Stage 1 data for this engine variant. Actual results depend on vehicle condition, mileage, and the chosen tuning method. We recommend discussing your specific vehicle with a qualified remap professional.
