Mercedes-Benz C 180 CDI (1600cc) 116hp Remap

The Mercedes-Benz C 180 CDI (1600cc) 116hp is a 1.6L turbocharged diesel engine producing 116 BHP and 280 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 160 BHP and 380 Nm — a gain of around 44 BHP (38%) and 100 Nm (36%).

This engine scores highly for remap suitability, with a balanced spread of gains across both power and torque — providing a noticeable improvement across the rev range. The tuning headroom is classified as high, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.

Considerations: 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.
