Recommended Posts

Ok, i am soon to go on my pilgrimage for a weeks thrashing around Ullapool.

The question is will the scoob be ok to run on normal unleaded since the Andy F remap ?

Or do i need to go Octane booster?

Your help/advice and thoughts are very much appreciated.

Hey Davie! Hope you enjoy the Heelinds! ;)

Best option is to ask Andy F himself just to see how strictly he mapped it..

FYI - Vpower stocks are only available in Inverness and Beauly.. No further north (AFAIK)

Generally speaking you could get away with normal fuels if you keep it low but what's the chances of that.. :(

Yeah, aware of where the PFS are just wanted to know cos normally go North from Ullapool on daily runs,Kylesku,Durness,Tongue etc etc.

If you are mapped on V power then i would take some Octane Booster with you, especially if you are going to give it some beans up there.

Just for peace of mind of course!

I went up to John O'groats in the summer and found a garage in Thurso. Can't remember if it was V power or BP ultimate though,

neither mate but you will get 98 sul from 2 different garages in thurso, one at the main bridge going through the town and one as you leave going west out the town :(

Quite right!!

My car has also been mapped by Mr Forrest (on V power) and has not had any issues using the 98ron super unleaded.........................................so far!!
