Insurance companies will interrogate the ECU in event of a total loss if a vehicle value payout warrants it
they do anything not to pay out 
freeze frame data will give speed even on a standard modern car
just saying 

Presumably your last act as you climb out of the wreckage is to revert the ECU to factory settings while you wait for the ambulance.

Would the insurance company really interrogate the ECU if the car looked standard, you had no traffic offences and you were a Lord?

reverting the map to OEM won't clear freeze frame data ,which is NOT the fuel map ,with suitable hardware and software you could clear freezeframe data  , if your blood loss allows the time 
"they do anything not to pay out "
being a Lord, he probably won't even bother making an insurance claim for such a pittance £30k

More power and better fuel economy....

One has to ask why the manufacturers ever anxious for better figures don't  use these maps as standard.? Could it be that components cannot  take the extra stress.. that being the case you wouldn't want to buy a s/h car that had been stressed up and thrashed and then reverted to factory spec.....

Quiet simple, its wont meet emissions with the new map (and the manufacturer has to met far more than just the MOT test emissions)

That's okay on a diesel, as long as the remap doesn't make it smoke. 

Old Diesells where they just have a smog test yes, newer diesels tested on emissions so no, won't pass.

I've been called a likeable rogue before now ......along with another word that starts with the letter C and ends with the letter T.

This is more within my budget!   

So does anyone know anything about the thingie in the link above as I'm more tempted to spend 60 quid than £250!   

My old BMW had a little box like that cabled tied to the fuel filter housing with cables that disappeared into the engine, and that thing went like stink!

My guess is that it won't work.
