Engine family John Deere 4.5L →

STEINBAUER performance module for the John Deere 5100M 4.5L PowerTech PWX Stage V, designed to provide increased power and torque while retaining the original ECU programming and factory engine safeguards.

Key benefits

  • Up to +25% power and torque increase, depending on application.
  • No ECU software overwrite — the STEINBAUER system works alongside the original engine management.
  • Injection duration module developed to add performance without generic one-size-fits-all mapping.
  • Removable solution that can be removed if required.
  • Application-specific development for the individual engine and vehicle or machine application.
  • Efficiency — Additional torque can help maintain performance under load without relying on excessive engine speed, which may support more efficient fuel use during field work, PTO operation and transport.

Actual fuel consumption depends on vehicle load, operating conditions, terrain and driving or operating style.

STEINBAUER Technology

  • External ECU technology — Works alongside the original engine management system without permanently rewriting the factory ECU software.
  • Load-dependent performance — Additional power and torque are delivered progressively as engine demand increases.
  • Application-specific calibration — Developed specifically for the individual engine and application rather than using a generic universal setting.
Agricultural performance

Developed for real agricultural work

The additional output is aimed at the working range used for field work, PTO operation and transport rather than simply chasing a peak power figure.

Pulling performance More usable torque for cultivation, gradients and heavy field work.
PTO performance Additional output for PTO-driven implements and demanding operations.
Transport Stronger response when towing, carrying loads or working on gradients.
PTO dyno testing STEINBAUER UK can test suitable tractors before and after installation.
