Default over fueling i think, help.

I think i may have a few problems, i don't seem to get as good mpg as the rest of you with vts's and the fumes coming from my exhaust smell of petrol quite badly, when i had my new exhaust fitter the old one was absolutely filled with petrol, and the cat was ''empty'' apparently according to the bloke at powerflow, was also a cat from a 1.1? weird!
the bloke i brought the car off says its been remapped but has he just been ripped off and had the fuel turned up slightly, if thats even possible.

so my question is, what do i do?

cheers

Get it on a good dyno, then you'll know exactly what's going on.

most places charge bout 20 notes for code read (diagnose), overfueling is normally caused by lambda sensor troubles
