[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 692713, member: 15"] US Octane rating is based on AKI, so as someone mentioned earlier 91 AKI is equivalent to RON 95 here. As to whether your car will benefit from running a higher RON fuel, check the owner's manual. I believe the quoted hp/torque from BMW is based on RON98. As for both my car and bike, RON97 makes a significant difference especially in the midrange. Then again, they only get their RON97 feed on weekends :) [/QUOTE]
