^ Indeed.

USA/Canada uses RON and they use a different system of calculating octane ratings.

generally speaking, 91 here should be like 96 or so over there, and Sunoco 94 Octane is like the japanese 100 octane, tis goood shiat

US octane 87 (regular) is the same as 95 in most european countries i think.

While europeans use RON* to measure octane, the US uses a mean average of RON and MON values...

when i lived in finland octane ratings were 95 and 98 and 99...



....or europeans are just crazy and they run all of their cars on RACE FUEL!
