Stage 1 TC Performance
« on: December 23, 2016, 01:15:55 PM »
http://www.chiptuning-lodz.pl/en/chiptuning/smart-forfour-brabus-1-5-turbo-177-km-130-kw-2/

According to the website above, the Brabus can have a stage 1 up great at a cost of €150 and change the Bhp from 177 to 295.

Has anyone else done this? I am very tempted to try.

I know, it's got to be a joke/mistake.
Even v-tech page in Poland says 295bhp.

I'm going to call them both next week. If it's €150 euro, then I'll give them a try. It's got to be a mistake.

It is most definitely a typo error as there is no way with just
a 'remap' or 'chiptune' that you can possibly get 295bhp...FACT.

I'm thinking whoever 'keyed/typed' the figure in suffered from
'fat finger' syndrome...and hit 9 instead of 0... in other words 205bhp.
Now that figure IS attainable via a 'simple' remap with no other mods.
