Remaps

Paul and David Murphy of Smartarse Design are pleased to announce the launch of our NEW Smartarse Tuning upgradeable remapping service.

Our mission statement of “helping our customers to get more fun from their fun cars” has been enhanced by this and our continued efforts to bring new products to the smart market.

The service will offer the opportunity to enter the world of remapping at a budget level and offer upgrades to our customers map as and when they modify their smart. Starting at an entry level map at £150 inc vat the service includes a mapping/performance consultation, diagnostic and visual check of your car, warranty, plus, try before you buy and 7 days money back guarantee.

Paul and David Murphy said, “We are pleased to announce our NEW upgradeable remapping service. We have been working with Augusto Donnetti and his team at Red Dot Racing to provide Millennium remaps for nearly two years and are delighted to be widening our range of maps and providing a new custom remapping service”.

We aim to give our customers, old and new, a wider choice of Smart products and services along with top customer service; offering cars for sale, car servicing, remapping, vinyl designs, performance enhancement products and a wide range of accessories. Everyone is welcome to visit and enjoy free tea and coffee and a friendly chat about these great little cars.”

Augusto Donetti of Red Dot Racing said, “I have been a Smart car enthusiast for a few years now and have worked with Paul and Dave to provide the Red Dot Racing Millennium remapping service. When the opportunity presented itself to work with the Smartarse team even closer and provide a wider range of maps and services, we welcomed the chance. The custom mapping process has taken off with other car marques in the UK so why not the smart, we believe there is an untapped market and at Watford we are well placed to provide this service.”

Mapping carried out at Romsey or Watford, other locations possible on request.
Entry level A map
This map is a basic map ideal to compliament a sports air filter and exhaust. It will speed up gearchange, remove the limiter whilst improving torque and BHP by approx 15% (car and weather dependant!)
Mid level B map (our regular maps)
This map is ideal to compliament the more advanced customised smart. It will work well with a sports air filter, larger turbo induction pipe, larger intercooler pipes, and sports exhaust. It will speed up gearchange, remove the limiter whilst improving torque and BHP by approx 30% (excluding other mods, car and weather dependant!)
Please note we would suggest others mods such as brake discs and pads, suspension lowered and stiffened plus wider wheels and tyres are used with this conversion.
Custom level C map
This map is what it's all about if you are seriously into modifying your smart as it is a map customised to your hardware set up, ideal to compliament the most advanced customised smart. So what do you get for your money? we measure your cars current BHP and torque on a new rolling road, we discuss with you what you would like and what we think is possible and prepare a couple of mapping files for testing, your car is measured again on the rolling road and finally tested on the road with our mapping expert and yourself. The power output results depend upon your mods specification.
Typically cars have the roadster bigger turbo, Viper air induction, larger fuel injectors, roadster cam, sports exhaust etc however we also custom map cars with all manner of modifications so call for a chat.
Please note we would suggest others mods such as brake discs and pads, suspension lowered and stiffened plus wider wheels and tyres are used with this conversion.

The Smartarse Tuning Upgrade Deal
So what's the deal?
The idea of offering such a package of maps is so our customers can map their cars inline with the mods that they add and pay as they go.
Buy the basic entry map and upgrade when it suits you.
All maps are covered by our warranty and come with a try before you buy and 7 days money back guarantee.
ease note:
You will have to make a booking for a mapping consultation and need to allow an hour to go through the process with us as before we map your car we will put it on our diagnostic machine and do a visual check to ensure we are happy to map your car. Mapping of your car is done at the owners risk and you will be asked to sign a disclaimer.

What is remapping? ODB Lead

 

 

 

 

 

OBD Engine mapping is the modern version of chipping. When you "chip" a car you basically put in a chip that has a set of data already burnt onto it, into your ECU. When you OBD remap an ECU, you save off the data currently stored on the chip and overwrite it with the performance data. This then allows you to apply different maps where applicable and also restore the original data should you require it. The benefit obviously of this is that it means you have not changed any standard part of the car and therefore warranty is unaffected etc.

Can the remapping be reversed?

The main plus point of this modern methodology means that we can reverse the information back to standard for you at any time. Because of this, if you came back to us within 14 days and asked us to reverse the process we will do so free of charge AND refund you the full amount. After 14 days, there is NO CHARGE to return your car to standard, but no refund unless there is any issue of course. If you have come a long way to us, we understand its not always easy to return within 14 days, so talk to us and we will come up with a compromise for you.

How will it affect my warranty?

There is no change needed to any hardware for engine remapping. Therefore there should be no affect on your warranty

What do you gain?

The Performance Optimisation gives you the best possible power, response and flexibility from your engine - in some cases up to 35% more power and 40% more torque.

The torque is increased from idle upwards, even before any boost is produced. This expands the useable rev-range of your engine and brings boost pressure in faster and earlier. Mid-range power and torque increases provide most of what you feel whilst you drive. By correctly matching air/fuel ratios throughout the rev-range, top end power is increased.

In short, Power and Torque will now be maintained at their optimum levels throughout the whole rev-range reducing the drama involved with overtaking. Less gear changes will be required due to the larger power band making for a more relaxed drive.

The Optimisation also improves fuel atomisation, and hence combustion, and thus can also improve fuel economy. We have many letters from customers telling us of up to 4 mpg better consumption!

We recommend that Smarts that are remapped use, where possible higher octane fuel 97 ron and above.  Our recommendation is Shell V Power 98 ron+

Custom remapping

This can be done – with or without the rolling road – however if you want before and after graphs and best optimisation then you need to attend our Branch in Watford where we book you in with our software writers to write a map to suit your car.
The rolling road is a piece of machinery that measures your cars abilty to overcome a set pressure measuring its power.

Our software writers have run more than 2000 cars on the dyno ranging from 127.5bhp 700cc Smarts (Ours!) to a Ferrari F50 with 554bhp

The Dyno is a new American Land & Sea’s DYNOmite Chassis Dynamometer System which combines the latest sophisticated data acquisition electronics with DYNO-MAX 2000™

The Dyno can measure accurately to (+ /- 1hp) to 650BHP at the wheels It also includes a weather station for repeatable simulations. (test today and next month and engine results will not be affected by weather conditions)

5 gas exhaust analiser
Turbo boost preasure

Can you only do my smarts?

We can remap other cars too – turbo diesels (upto +35%) and normally aspirated (upto+10%).  Mini one is popular with 90bhp upto 135 bhp increase – Cooper power!
