Japanese imports are mapped to run on 102RON fuel, so you would be better off getting it re-mapped to UK fuel standards to prevent engine damage. You should be able to run Optimax and octane booster in the meantime
Knocklink is a warning system which alerts the driver if pre-detonation (potential engine damage) is occurring, and is handy to have on an import.
