abbs it deffo aint fuel mate, theres no chance it will do that, i had a similer thing before, my ignition lead 2 broke down and i changed em for beru leads, that night my car was flying like fooooook , i was claiming there the best thing in the world made my car feel faster ect with no other mods
looked at my peak boost recall as stu said i was talking shit, turns out the penny was stuck shut on the turbo and i was running unlimited boost
so yours might be the same type of thing

its something mechanical/electrical mate.

abbs, theres deffo another reason for it, could be crap optimax,,,,,, doubtfull as ya would be running less boost
theres another reason why and it MAY have a slight bit to do with the fuel but that aint the sole reason
im would phone harvey but hes busy on another call

tits got fish on the adds too, oh and ferrari helped to design it, must be better 
dingy this is .5 bar where talking about though, quite alot more boost to run from a simple fuel change to do that much 
Better Burn ?
More Load ? - from better burn
More Boost ?

the car should have a safe drt map anyway tbh, if done proper the car will only det of theres a issue else where, that wont allow the fuel to solve it either
besides cars can det for a short period before it finally melts, not as easy as people think unless theres a bad det issue or ya on and off the pedel
