nope, you can use the 93 tune and run 98 octane... won't hurt anything... the 98 octane will actually help to eliminate any KR you may have.

I noticed that with mine. I put in a bottle of octane booster and brought my 93 octane gas up to 94 octane, and now I only have one or 2 blips of KR, for about a half a second, of only 0.3xx and 0.17xx... nice!!

next step is to mix a few gallons of Sunoco/CAM2 100 octane race gas in with my 93 octane, that'll give me 94/95 octane and I'll be set!!

If you are overseas they do have different RON ratings for octane, so your 98 is almost identical to our 93 due to the rating system.
