Get the flash, use it for up to 14 days and if you do not like it have it reflashed back to stock and get all your money back.<br /> <br /> In addition, we just introduced a new Sprint Boost Module for the Smart and those that have actually tried it have loved it. You can check it out on our site under "New Products".<br /> <br /> Thanks everyone! Full circle...

Generally considered not cost effective... but then they can buy or trade to a turbo instead. It is very hard to get remap claims for the 451 non-turbo quantified by dyno tests... if you send your ECU to someone and did not dyno it before and after... well... you really don't know how good it is do you? (Night time / deserted road drag runs 0 to 60 mph??)<br /> <br /> Turbo engines are much more open to remapping by increasing turbo boost pressure.<br /> <br /> smarts previous to the current 999cc (US: 1 liter) petrol engines were all turbo.<br /> See: <a href="http://www.fq101.co.uk/poweroutputs.asp">http://www.fq101.co.uk/poweroutputs.asp</a> for power ratings.<br /> <br /> The current 1 litre engine produces less power per cc than previous generations; it is comparatively under-stressed. It is a different engine; not a rebore of the previous Suprex generations.<br /> <br /> Previous smarts had various turbo problems; usually cracked manifolds and oil leaks... I am hoping that my current series turbo does not have any problems. Current engines are by Mitsubishi. A three year, unlimited mileage warranty gives me some confidence... also I read somewhere that Mitsubishi tested the engine for an equivalent of 500,000 km (up to about 40 years normal driving ?)<br /> <br /> The current "real" BRABUS is a turbo rated at 98 bhp. It must be fed RON 98 fuel to be happy. It is generally not available outside select parts of Europe. The USA BRABUS first release is the non-turbo 71 bhp naturally aspirated engine. USA does not yet get the 84 bhp turbo; or any other turbos The 71 bhp na engine will be mhd standard or mhd option for the coming year in most of the world. Turbos are not suited to mhd due to turbo cool down requirements (turn turbos off when too hot and the mainfold may crack and the oil supply dries out... ala your previous cars.) Yes i mean brakes.
