people with the more modern cars (170hp) seem to be reporting better mpg so i'm still definitely thinking try the remap, best case I get better mpg AND 30 extra horses, worst case, just the horses. do you know which map you have?
dont forget though there is variation depending where you get your petrol from, I find the best is shell, and by far the worst is tesco. im told BP is good but there just isn't one near any of my usual routes

Stuart , Ive been running diesels for the last 13 years and never ever worried about fuel grade or how fast I drove ! But the good old Mayor forced my hand and i could not find a Lexus 400h that I liked and bought this volvo as a stop gap. Its gutless and drinks like Oliver Reed .But I kinda like it ! But will avoid supermarket petrol .
Just this second found a Yellow amp for my car .for less than £40 delivered. So happy about that and will swap it out very soon after getting it . The extra power will then make me want to do the door speakers !. I'm not going to bother with a Sub .But will stick some sound deadening inside each door .
