Octane (was Turbo)



>>I've got it easy here in Sweden. The lowest octane is 95.<<

Depends on how the octane is measured. There are 3 ways, MON, RON or
(R+M)/2 methods.
In the US they use (R+M)/2.
In Australia ( & most of the rest of the world ? ) RON is used. Here we
have 93 unleaded, 96 leaded, 95 premium unleaded & 98 premium unleaded
fuels available.
The 93 octane mentioned was also called premium. This is probably measured
using the (R+M)/2 method & would be equivalent to 97 RON or so.
