Probably hasn't been mapped because it's a V3, being unmappable it would need ESL or some other replacement ECU if it hasn't got one already, which I'm sure it doesn't if its not been mapped for UK fuel.

I can't imagine there'd be a problem if you run 99RON, maybe even get some octane booster?

On my 6s ecu fitted to my type r v3 I get no knock or running issues on 99ron v-power. That's was on a completely standard setup.

I ran mine for several years when Shell sold Optimax (98 RON) but always added Octane Booster - the Knocklink was always in the green under full boost (1.3bar managed by a Blitz DSBC). Always worth having a bottle or two in the boot in case you run short of a Shell garage.

If it's lasted 5 years it should be OK or it's about to go bang if not.
