95 and 100 I think
you can get 100 ron which is like 95-96 in the states. There used to be 104 available at a couple of gas stations which would have been 99-100 in the states, but I haven't seen it for a while.

Don't you mean Haioku. Haiyai = fast.

Hugh always got gas at the Jomo that we always go to to wash our cars/hang out. Is that one a 104 pump or a 100 pump?

Look up Jason from the rx7 club, he put down 500 and something rwhp at 19psi with his t-78. There are a few other guys in the same category.

He did do it on race gas, but race gas is more of a safety factor than horsepower booster.

Just so you guys know. You gennerally want to get race gas out of a drum as opposed to the pump. Vented in ground tanks cause the octane to drop significantly as time goes on.
