peugeot 205 GTI 1.9 Unleaded ?? - puntoo
I have been offered a pug 1.9 205 gti thay is a non cat version, that the current owner uses with high octane petrol.

From various pug websites it seems that only the later 1.9's fitted with catalytic converters will run on 95 ron unleaded petrol (and have a lower BHP), where the one'a prior to about 1992 will only run 98 ron fuel.

Can the older 1.9 pugs be converted to run on normal 95 ron unleaded or will I be doomed to forever fill up this car with super unleaded or fuel additive.

If you know of a web link or a garage that could convert (and a rough estimate of the price involved) then please let me know.
