Stage 1 remap figures

A Stage 1 remap is a software-only change to the ECU on an otherwise standard car. It needs no extra parts, which makes it the usual starting point.

Who is the Stage 1 map for?

  • Drivers who want a noticeably quicker car from a software-only change, with no new parts.
  • Daily drivers who want stronger mid-range pull and a sharper throttle.
  • Anyone who wants the biggest gain we list without fitting hardware.

What this means for your Fortwo

On a turbocharged petrol engine a remap adjusts boost, ignition timing and fuelling together, so both power and mid-range torque rise and the car pulls harder out of corners and junctions.

This car is listed with a Bosch ME7.7.0 engine control unit. We read the ECU on your car and compare it with the software listed here before any work starts, so you know what to expect before you commit.

We remap at our Belgrave Gate workshop in Leicester, or at your home or work within 30 miles, and every job starts with a diagnostic check.

Please note: these are expected figures, not guarantees. Real results vary with the condition of the vehicle, the ECU software version, fuel quality and the hardware fitted. Some options - including Stage 2 and anything that needs extra hardware - are for off-road or competition use only. We check every vehicle first and confirm what is achievable before any work starts.

Stage 1 questions

How much power does the Stage 1 map give the Smart Fortwo 1.0 Turbo Brabus 102bhp?

We expect 120bhp and 175Nm against 102bhp and 146Nm as standard: up to +18bhp and +29Nm. These are expected figures, and we confirm what is achievable on your own car after a diagnostic check.

Does a Stage 1 remap need any extra parts on the Smart Fortwo 1.0 Turbo Brabus 102bhp?

No. Stage 1 is a software-only change to the ECU on an otherwise standard car.

Is there a gentler map than Stage 1 for this engine?

Yes, two. Stage 1 Eco is performance with economy in mind: 116bhp and 173Nm expected. The Eco map is economy first: 114bhp and 171Nm. Both still sit above the standard 102bhp and 146Nm.

Do I need to tell my insurer about a remap?

Yes. A remap is a modification, so you should declare it to your insurer.
