Hi guys,

Wot are the fuel octane rates over there with you?

Over there in the UK we can get 95,97, 98, and 99 octane depending on the garage used.

I ve just put a Beams engine in my Celica and run 98 Shell fuel (called V POWER) the engine is a Import straight from Japan. i know they run higher octane there and i thought you run lower octane over with you.

So what fuel do you run imports on? how do get around not being able to get 100 octane like in Japan?

I know this thread has a few questions. I am genuinely interested.

The rating method for US gas is different than for Europe. Your 100 octane is close to our 94. Our 100 octane is around 108 to 110 there. Its rare but we can find 100 octane here in cali, but we have 87.89.91, and its not even good gas its like water, harsh for turbo cars.
