Can someone tell me if I can use this product in europe. We have a minimum of octane 95 here, and we also have 98 available.
Will this work, or is it possible to change the setup for this octane value?
I have a 05 magnum 5.7 HEMI

Yeah, 95 or 98 will work fine with the 93 tune. Higher octane just burns slower than lower octane.

Be careful...the 95 or 98 isn't the octane rating. Octane is RON + MON / 2. I can't remember whether the 95/98 is RON or MON, but I went through this when I lived in the UK with my Mustang. Don't quote me, but I think when I finally found the formular the 95 was 89 octane and the 98 was 91 octane. Again, don't quote me on the numbers, but I can tell you from experience that 95 & 98 aren't the actual octane ratings. I think the sticker ont he pumps will tell you if it's the RON or MON rating.
Guys at the local drag strip could probably tell you too.
Hope that helps,
Chris

95 (RON) = 90.2 in the U.S.
98 (RON) = 93.1 in the U.S.
