Will I have to remap?

Ill be fitting a FMIC to the scooby this weekend (track car), but cannot really afford a remap as of yet, but will i need to have one or will the car run just fine on the standard map?

On track car I would not take a chance and save for a remap, as the car will be operating higher up the rev range and more than likely will run lean with your mods and no remap resulting in a melted piston.

Remap cheaper than engine rebuild, mate!

You need a remap for road use, let alone periods of track use. Do not risk it! Keep the car off boost till you get it seen to properly would be my advice.
