Default mixing fuel ?

Just a quick question for the technicly minded. I have just taken my 95 wrx for SVA (passed with flying colours)
For the test it needs to have a full tank of fuel. so without realy thinking i filled it with 95 ron. I have used just over 1/4 of the tank for the journey to and from the test station ( got to wait for the registration documents now before i can take it out I have since read abou the benefits of of using super unleaded 97 ron. would i be doing any damage by mixing the 2 ? i.e filling up again now with 97 ?
thanks. Rob.

Nice one m8,bet you can't wait to get on the road.
as for mixing fuels no probs mixing 95ron with 97 ron, try to run on 97 if you can though, if you fail to find a garage with it, keep a bottle of millers or another
octane booster handy, one bottle to a full tank.enjoy your motoring.

best thing to do would be to top up with optimax or quality super unleaded then use a octain booster ...i use NF race additive it can increase your Ron by up to 6 points this NF comes highly recomended ...hope this helps

he beat me to it ^^^^^
