RON-MON-AKI and on top of that (RON+MON)/2 - looking for Racefuel for EVT-690R!
Having had EVT-690R kit installed, I started to wonder the octane differencies in US and in Europe. Evoms clearly states that to achieve maximum performance, the 690R -kit requires 103 octane "Racefuel".
After studying the allmighty internet, I've learned that in US actual octane is Anti-Knock Index (AKI) and it is some digits lower that RON in Europe.
Now my question is that is our premium 98 RON == 103 octane Racefuel in AKI?
And if not, how much is 98 RON in AKI?
Additional Quiz for forum's European members: Do you really think that Shell VPower really is 100 RON? I've my doubts about this (I'm working in advertising industry...
)
GIAC has different mapping for Eurofuels, how much this affects this matter - beats me.

Wikipedia has some very useful info about various RON's & MON's: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane_rating
