Yep that's right, the USA guys have to suffer from cat's piss a lot of the time. One of the reasons why out of the box US tunes aren't optimised for Australian cars.

Most US states have 93 AKI fuel. Out on the west coast(ie: California) the highest they have is 91 AKI.

93/94 AKI = 98 RON.

In Germany some stations even have 100 (Aral/BP) or 102 RON (Shell's V-Power)over here.
