BOOST LEVEL FOR MY T-5R... 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray N on  Fri Aug 16 09:15 CST 2002 [RELATED]

The method used to measure octane in europe and U.S. differ.
Europe uses RON and in U.S. we use CLC which is (RON + MON) / 1

CLC = (RON + MON) / 2

RON = Research Octane number (ROZ in Germany)
MON = Motor Octane Number
CLC = U.S. Cost of Living Council

Numbers I found on web site:

91 RON = 87 CLC (Regular)
95 RON = 91 CLC (Premium)

So 98 RON would be 93 to 94 on our CLC scale.
