TBH over here we have only 95 ron petrol(unless u add octane booster)

so getting it mapped for 95 is ok, but you have more choices in the uk, so get it mapped for 99.

performance wise 99 ron is always better, but only if car is mapped for it.

you can run it on 95, but tbh performance wise it will dissapoint you.

i use 95, but have major mods and my bhp is around 340, when we had super unleaded 99 ron i was running at 380bhp.

hope this helps
