Title: Remaps - 95RON vs 98RON
Post by: johnhol78 on April 11, 2011, 07:20:03 pm

If a remap is written for 95RON, what difference would be made when the map is changed to 98RON?

not sure what you are asking, do you mean whats the diference between maps? or what will the effect be of using 98ron fuel in a car mapped for 95? or something completely different?

Think you should be speaking to the person writing your maps.  :confused:

Did earlier.

They are written with the 98 in mind though wind it back so 95 can be used. Still achieving 240 so happy with that.. :smiley:

Just dropping the timing will make a 98RON map suitable for use with lower octane fuel.
