Leaded gas was never needed in 911 or 914 engines.

IF you can find pure gas (no ethanol) 87 regular will make it run like a top.

91 RON. RON is a Euro standard, and 91 RON closely approximates 87 in US.

Stock type IV engines have pretty modest compression ratios, so all you need is regular gas. Non-ethanol if available.

does anyone use octane boosters?
what about for a 2056? It's hard to find anything over 91 RON around here

OMG this AGAIN?
RON != octane
