Re: Fuel, do's and dont's
depends what it was mapped for, i should think its dynamix, duncan graham. can drop him a bell (his number should be findable on google) and ask him or drop the previous owner a bell. Def need to find out though
I suspect it will be for 99ron so v power or tesco 99 though

Re: Fuel, do's and dont's
the manual for subaru wrx turbo says 98 octane or higher all though you can run on 95.modern electronics on cars will sort out the differences just give it some time. its worked for me on jap import wrx turbo prodrive

Yes you can run 95 but you have to stay off boost.

Try a JDM Import thats not been mapped to run on UK fuel without any octane boost, see how long that last. ![]()

Re: Fuel, do's and dont's
I remember an episode of 5th Gear where they tested all the petrols for BHP gains. The VPower was by fat the best, adding an impressive 5-BHP. It's what I always shove in my Scooby.
