Re: Smart Tuners

Brabus will always be the expensive option but hopefull I may be able to help by linking a few of the more reputable shops here and I'm sure that by some cunning googling you'll be able to find a few forums and sites in the UK that will be able to answer most of your questions.

I don't want to upset anybody by linking sites in my 1st post so if you're desperate for some help then PM me and I'll send you some of the links that most Smart owners in the UK have in their favourites list.

I believe that we are the only show in town when it comes to ECU tuning the US SMART.

One of our clients just posted a dyno of our SMART tune. 85 hp @ the crank! Almost a 20% improvement.

It's not just the 15 hp... We improve the shifting (especially the 1-2 shift). Both of which really gives the car a much more sporting feel.

Didn't see the dyno at the link you mention, actually saw people asking for a dyno result. Do you have a more direct link to it?

www.smartmadness.com carries a TON of the after market Smart mods like the Breathless exhaust, air intake, Veloce ECU, etc. They also have wheels, body kits and more. I've have nothing but good service from them! (I'm not affiliated with them). :p
