hello viewers and welcome to smog racer Channel hello viewers and welcome to part two of the video how to improve performance on Smart Roadster if you haven't watched the first part where we discuss simple upgrades that can improve roads to power significantly make sure to click on the video in the right corner in this video we are going further to see what is the limit for this small engine let's start with the next upgrade sport exhaust an upgraded exhaust system can significantly improve your car's performance by reducing back pressure and improving exhaust flow this can lead to gains in Horsepower and a more aggressive exhaust note video on how to install new exhaust can be found on our Channel currently for the smart Roadster we D have many options most know the exhaust system is from sman called sow the system has maximum pipe diameters and a 300 cells per square in metal race catalytic converter to create the maximum flow depending on what engine and software you have in your smart car it will get you 8 to 20 horsepower extra and the engine will pick up and respond a lot faster the exhaust has an adjustable and removable stainless steel sensor Center Twinn pipe the exhaust sound is deep but not too loud perfect for Road use and long distances the price for exhaust with shipping is a little over €1,000 to install a new exhaust system lift the car and secure it on jack stands locate the exhaust components and carefully remove the old system it is possible to take exhaust without removing rear bumper but if you want to save your hands rather remove rear bumper benefits a high performance exhaust Can add around 10 to 15 horsepower by improving exhaust flow and reducing back pressure cost from €600 to over €1,000 ECU now let's talk about the ECU remapping or upgrading your car's ECU can optimize engine performance by adjusting fuel delivery ignition timing and boost pressure this can unlock significant power gains and improve overall drivability this is for sure the best option if you look at how much you pay and what you get there are not many tuners that want to play with roads to ECU at least from my experience it is ECU made by Bosch code name meeg 1.0 or 1.1 check good before it is the best option to choose a proven tuner like CS tuning RS parts or fisch which are specified for smart cars and give you the option to send your ECU for tuning and issue TUV certificate for insurance or car registration purpose there are a few options depending on which ECU you have for example 82 horsepower version can go up to 125 horsepower braus ECU is less known for additional tuning benefits depending on the tune and other supporting modifications an ECU upgrade can add anywhere from 20 to 50% more horsepower making it one of the most effective upgrades for the money together with increased performance you can expect faster gear change cost from €200 depends on tuna in manifold replacing the stock intake manifold with a performance version can increase air flow to the engine boosting power and efficiency this is especially effective when combined with other intake and exhaust upgrades to replace the intake manifold first disconnect any sensors and hoses attached to the old manifold remove the mounting bolts and carefully lift off the old manifold install the new performance manifold in its place secure it with the bolts and reconnect the sensors and hoses this upgrade can significantly improve your engine's breathing and power output a performance intake manifold can provide an additional 10 to 15 horsepower by improving air flow into the engine this upgrade is made by 223 development you can reach them on Facebook [Music]
