Re - map question
As I am lookIng for other options to get better mpg from the scooby I was wondering if you could re map a scooby to run normal unleaded as outright power is not that important to me ?

Is your Bug a UK one ? From memory my old UK Bug Sti could run on either 95 or 97 RON, without issue but would lose a little power on the lower RON fuel. I seem to remember that info was in the handbook :)
BUT hold out for more input as I wouldn't want to cause you any damage !! Si. |
My car has been remapped for more power, but also it has been leaned off a good bit on light throttle, it actually goes right off the narrowband AFR gauge when cruising, i get 30mpg when driving like this
|
my dads 02 sti has been mapped on rat piss, aka 95 ron lol it managed to run a safe 305bhp.
i wouldn;t want to run it on 95 without mapping for it |
Maybe a Subaru dealer can advise you of safe fuel to use on your car's standard ECU? CVC or Keith Price ?

but at stoich, or 14.7:1 its always going to be bad on fuel, regardless of the fact its costing 5p a litre less. The answer is to lean it off in the cruise section of the map.
