Remap on different fuel
Hi guys, well I've finally found the (near) perfect Scoob and placed a deposit.
The only thing stopping it being perfect is that its mapped on Tesco 99ron fuel. Getting to a Tesco fuel station is a pain around my area and I'd prefer it on V power since its easier for me to get to them and it has all the cleaning agents in it.
Just wondered how I go about it. Do I just run the tank near empty, full with v power, drive it steady to the mapper and get it mapped or is it a bit more complicated?

All in agreement then - a first for SN? 
Just would add that you might find you get less mpg on V power, about 10% in my case.
(The only reason I'm mentioning it is that if you do, don't think you do need a remap or some changes after all).

Should be fine it's the Ron it's mapped on 99 so stick with 99, you may find on some fuel it runs and MPG is slightly better then other fuel.
My Cosworth was mapped for V-Power but ran best on Esso 99 and worst on BP Ultimate, but hardly noticeable difference just a bit more hesitant and down in MPG.
