LOL.... "Research" does not mean for you to research. It's the full term.

The most common type of octane rating worldwide is the Research Octane Number (RON). RON is determined by running the fuel in a test engine with a variable compression ratio under controlled conditions, and comparing the results with those for mixtures of iso-octane and n-heptane.

Let's stop talking "tomaatoes and tomohtoes"... the point is.. don't let the dealor charge you for it, or at least so much for something so simple.
