No should be no damage etc

But to get most out of it best to have it mapped on the fuel you use most and then mapped on 95ron

I cover leeds

You 'do' realise this will invalidate your warranty ?

A


PS . But if you did do it - a full JGM remap will transform the car lol. Its a slippery slope.

Does that mean you could run three maps? I never use the I-drive due to slow response and would find it a lot better if I could have low, standard and high power maps but with the sports # response.

Will race rom make a difference to it?

What bhp / ft/lbs would you expect from an 08 currently PPP'd and would a sports cat and caik make a big difference?
Thanks,
Paul.

the race rom will have twin maps yes.

they do benefit from a caik yes.

around 355~370bhp and 380~400lb seems to be the norm.

the ppp sports cat is actually fairly good

I have played a lot in the past with 95ron maps on my own cars and tended to find for my own driving it meant it did less mpg and therefore equalled out the cost difference.
there is less power on the 95ron so you put your foot down more to get the same acceleration even if it be slowly etc..

I am about to try again on my daily drive, as a lot of customers are asking.
