Default Car mapped for BP Ultimate Can I use Shell VPower

As above would the increase in ron make any difference as I had my power fc mapped on BP Ultimate but would like to see if I get an increase in performance with Shell V Power


Thanks

Tim

Depends on teh ECU and how it was mapped. It's unlikely to see a performance increase, but it will have enhanced safety on the Shell fuel.

V-Power is higher octane and therefore better fuel than BP's 'Ultish1te', whch means it's absolutely fine to use on your current map. You won't get any more power out of it unless you had a remap specifically for V-Power - however, it will give you a better margin of safety when you're ragging the car
