Ron 98 map for 182 request

[Kieran..]

i uploaded the ron 98 map that i sent joef and it is completly fine on my 182. its alot smoother and better idle like it should do.

i take it you loaded both files when doing the map?

 

[Joef]

A bit of an update. The Ron98 map worked a treat! Made up with the difference it's made. Big thanks to everyone that helped out especially martin182 for his guide over in the members area.

Can i ask if you noticed any MPG improvements?

 

[neil 182]

It should be better although mines slightly worse by about 2 mpg ! Confused

 

[Diagro]

Yea i have read that some have lost a little. I dont want to get the map if my economy is to suffer :/

 

[neil 182]

It's well worth the loss fella. The driver difference is amazing. Best mod money can buy imo.

 

[Diagro]

Whats the most notable difference for you?

 

[MartinR]

Mpg is better!! Its just that you floor it more thats why people think its lost economy

 

[Diagro]

Hmm ok.
Roll on pay day!

 

[Simon_16v]

Plus you will barely notice 2mpg anyway

 

[neil 182]

Yeah that's true and like what MartinR said u tend to be more heavy in the right boot so that's what makes it drop. But it is designed to improve mpg. I only use super ron98 but if ya use Ron 95 it won't be as good anyhow. The cons have been talked over and over on previous threads. Better cold starts, smoother engine less jerky, transforms mid range torque etc etc.

 

[Diagro]

I only use normal unleaded currently.

My local garage that's got 98 ron charges like £1.55L! Not paying that!!

 

[Addicted]

They're meant to be ran on higher than 95 anyway, even without the RSTuner map

Check the sticker on the filler cap.

 

[Diagro]

Yea i know.

I used Ron 95 sometimes before the rstuner map and my car hated it. Really bad lumpy idle and was spitting etc. Also because they are supposed to be ran on Ron 98 u actually get better mpg and the car runs so much better on it. My local garage charges 1.67 for super that's nuts like!

 

[Diagro]

Not paying over 1.40 per L lol

 

[Diagro]

Found a garage on way to work with super unleaded at 1.32
Tesco

 

[neil 182]

Sweet brother that's good fill her up ! Lol. Although I don't think super market fuel is the best quality hence the prices all the time. Boooooooo.

 

[MartinR]

Tesco

 

[Simon_16v]

I'm sure it's been proven that Tesco Momentum (99) is just as good as VPower but without the inflated price.

I always run my 182 on momentum and never had a problem.

 

[Ph1 Tom]

One of my old high comp engines would run on v power with the ignition retarded. It was fine on momentum and bp ultimate but momentum is about 20p cheaper.

 

[Clioste]

Nah vpower every day might be cheap but good fuel you stick cheap in and get less mpg so In the long run you are paying more so you maswell full up with good stuff as you save because you get mpg

Flol

 

[Dan@SJM]

He's right about getting more fuel economy using higher Ron fuel.

 

[Clioste]

It's true you that's what people never understand they think it's a load of rubbish but it's a theory tested and I've done my self

 

[Dan@SJM]

It's simple physics tbh.

Higher Ron, means you can run more ignition advance. More advance means you get more power per cycle. Which now means you can put less fuel in to get the same amount of power out.

 

[Clioste]

Yes it is higher octane less fuel you burn basically least we on the same wave lol

 

[Diagro]

Well.
I couldn't belive what this garage up the road is selling as premium...
Ron 97, £1.39 !
Screw that that's not what I would class as premium.... I thought 98+ was premium.

What ron is tesco premium that's around 1.32 per l

Premium is 97+

 

[Dan@SJM]

Is that not momentum? I don't have a tesco fuel around here. Premium is usually 95.

 

[Cudey]

I believe momentum is 99

 

[Diagro]

Normal is 95 here

 

[Diagro]

Oo found a tesco on way to work. 5 min diversion.
Has 99 fuel at 5p more per L. Bargin.

Will be using that from now on
