octane level?

Need some info on what the octane level is in germany. Will have my car built to have around 450 to 500 hp and need the octane level and specific gravity of fuel so the guys at Ground Zero would know how to tune my car.
thanks
oscar

Octane level here is 98, sometimes (Shell germany) 100..

Please take note that is in RON and that in the USA another octane definition is used, but also is called RON (or PON)

I Also think that even after a good "pre-tune" you should have the tune checked or redo after arriving here with the car.
