Smart injection

[Kapt. Q]

Having seen the MAT rise between 90cc and 120cc, I think there maybe room for improvement, but as you say, it is a fine line, it is definitely so rich right now that top end acceleration is harmed compared to without injection, but no miss-firing (turbo boosts so much better besides this even so!). Perhaps good to know how far it can be pushed before tuning as a bench mark. I think that tuning with all the possible permutations may take a whole day to complete!
Cheers!

Richard, have you ever killed an FAV? Just wondering, as he, and I will probably have the thing running most of the time. Will it be able to do 5-15% for 5 hours straight?

[Richard L]

No, never.

The only way the FAV is going to die pre-maturely is hydrocarbon contamination. It can take a matter of minutes.

I have absolute confidence in the system, it's my own ineptitude with it that worries me, lol!

It may be a tiny turbo, but it's compressor wheel also has a tiny price, so water erosion now holds no fear!

Cheers!

Very reasonable.

A matter of interest, what is the stock boost setting from factory?

[Kapt. Q]

Stock boost is 0.8bar in my car (stock performance 45kw 61hp), Stock it uses the smallest of the three Smart turbos.

1.7bar is possible with the right turbo, but 1.5 is what a lot of modded Smart fortwo's run using a roadster turbo (middle model turbo)

Roadsters run just over 1.0bar stock (can't remember exact figure).

Cheers!

No, gonna find a way to wear it out. There are no FI smarts in the US that I know of. A smart with a boosted hayabusa engine would be nice though.
