If I have my car remapped will it affect the insurance and VED?

If I have my car remapped will it affect the insurance and VED? Will it need to be measured for exhaust emissions to reassess to insurance and tax?

It will not need to be measured, but you will need to declare it to your insurer. It will not affect your VED.
