Mapped for 97ron - what if i use 98?

[gavink]

Hi all..

Had my car mapped by carl about 2 months ago using BP Ultimate fuel..

Im off to donnington this sunday on a track day and just wondering if using v-power will make any difference?..

I know i should just ring carl but i expect he\'s shut by now..

Should be fine mate! Using higher ron fuel can only be a good thing! Does a little to help prevent DET i think.

You will do it only good, higher Ron reduces the Knock. But DO NOT go down in Ron below 97ron as it is now mapped for lowest ron 97.
Have a great time on track mate. You are there to enjoy it,  IT IS NOT A RACE. Remember you will have to drive it home after the track time. HTH.:wave

Cheers for the replys

Im a bit worried about being black flagged due to noise to be honest...The last one a did was in an RS1800 Fiesta and my rex is twice as loud...The info i got with my recipt makes quite a big deal about noise and how you will be black flagged if over 98dba..uuummmmmm guess ill see tomoz.. :WaveBye
