Default CALLING ALL REMAPPED STI5 OWNERS

Have you/ would you ever use normal 95ron in your car?

I know you shouldnt but if its been mapped for 97ron, would it be ok to run on 95 sometimes?

i don't own the above car, but what i do know is, if your car is mapped for a certain fuel it has been optimised to its very best using that fuel, using any lesser a rated octane would lead to problems such as det and therefore engine damage, however if you are stuck you can use a lower rated fuel as a emergency only! and whilst useing that feul use it off boost to prevent any damage from occurring.
