“Noticed a huge improvement in acceleration, negligable increase in feel consumption.”

Halfway through the calibrating for Sport 2 mode, pretty satisfied so far. Noticed a huge improvement in acceleration, negligable increase in feel consumption. Haven't tried feel saver yet, good chance I may never try it as the sport 2 mode is a lot of fun and had way less negative impact on feul than I anticipated

“A gain of about 20 hp on a Kia Stinger GT.”

Translated from French

I tried this chip without any expectations. A gain of about 20 hp on a Kia Stinger GT. Power comes in faster, with a better kick on gear changes. I noticed the difference after about 50 km... I finished the 200 km on Race Max and I'm very satisfied. I recommend it.

Original: J'ai tenté l'essaie de cette chip, sans avoir aucune attente. Un gain d'environ 20hp pour un kia stinger gt. Puissance arrive plus vite et meilleur kick lors de changement de vitesse.

This tuning chip has made a very nice and definitely noticeable difference in the throttle response as well as top end before gear changes, plus an almost 40 more ponies to play with!!!! I would definitely recommend this if you’re looking for a little more get up and go at a reasonable price! I haven’t tried the gas saving feature yet so I’ll come back to you in a few months when the weather gets colder. I’m just enjoying the extra get up and go right now while the weather is nice. Setup was also very easy and went without a problem.

Frequently asked questions

By our estimate, Monte adds up to +34 hp and +38 lb-ft over the factory 429 hp and 384 lb-ft. On a turbocharged engine the calibration can raise boost as well as adjust fuelling and ignition timing, so there is more to gain than on a naturally aspirated engine.
Yes. Monte GT and Monte GTR both fit the 2020 Mercedes AMG CLS53 with the 3.0L L6 Turbo. They plug into the OBD-II port, with no wiring, and we set the device up for your car before it ships.

Mercedes AMG CLS53 3.0L L6 Turbo 2020 tuner: how it works

Monte plugs into the OBD-II port and carries a calibration for your engine. It changes fuel delivery and ignition timing values in the engine computer’s temporary memory, at up to 256 load points, and does not rewrite its permanent memory. Unplug it and the car is back to stock.

What it adds on this engine

The calculator above shows the factory figures for the 3.0L L6 Turbo and our estimate with Monte. Estimates are not a measurement of your car: fuel quality, altitude and the condition of the engine all move the result.

Monte GT or Monte GTR

Both carry the same calibration. The GT is controlled from the Monte app on your phone. The GTR has its own touch screen with live gauges, a fault-code scanner, a 0–60 timer and a virtual dyno. Both have an Eco mode for mileage, and both move with you to your next car.
