450 or 451

I have a 2006 cdi and after changing the tranny fluid and having a remap done,
the car shifts waaaay better than stock.

So are you going to post anything besides a bunch of outdated links that we all already know about in a futile attempt to try to upstage the 451 by the 450?

The original 451 transmission mapping was an improvement over the 450... the upgrade is supposed to be even better.

Seriously - either come up with something useful, or stop trying to create some sort of stir.

actually it's a mercedes engine - designed and built - suprex is just a name.

The 451 gearbox is comepletly different from the 450. It has nothing to do with mapping

speaking of smartmaniacs - this one is always a hoot:

highest mileage smart car

someone forgot to tell him to rebuild his engine - 7 times.

I'm well aware of that. My point being the 451 gearbox is a solid improvement over the 450.

You seem to be fond of posting links... here's one for you.

suprex engine - Google Search

Linking you back to another thread that you decided to post a bunch of links trying to disprove what has been written in the Daimler documentation...

450 vs 451


Like your 450 all you want - the 450 is a great car. It has its advantages over the 450, just like the 451 has its advantages over the 450. Feel free to point them out.

If you want to make statements of an untrue nature based on trying to manipulate written data to meet your point, you will get called on it.

[belkin666]

called on what? I didn't manipulate anything - the truth is it actually is a mercedes engine designed and built - suprex is just a name. The links I included in the past posts showed this to be the fact. Unfortunately some of the links have ceased to function. What daimler documentation sez different? Your google search is useless. No company named "Suprex" was involved in the design, development, engineering, or production of the smart engine - it was all mercedes benz.
