Question How many RON is Japanese fuel

I've just got an import STI type R and can run it on 100 ron fuel in Germany, do i need to use octane booster or get a remap, or will it be ok with 100 ron,

thanks

Ollie

100 octane is what you need. High octane fuel here is at least 100 RON, maybe a tad over from some companies.
