Fuel Octane Issues? 'Stans'

Hi All!

What is the petrol quality/octane rating like in the stan countries? (RON) I plan on setting of on a trip to Japan early next year (I will ship from India to Japan.).

I own vehicle already that I would love to take, but it is generally run on high octane fuel. Its a Subaru Forester with a 2.0 Turbo engine, not massively powerful at 220hp but still is run on high octane fuel.

I can remap it to run on 95RON, all countries I plan on passing through do offer this but I cannot find anything on the stan countries sadly. I could sell and get a non turbo version, but being a car enthusiast as well I want the more interesting vehicle and really dont want to sell!

So wondering would there be any fuel issue for this vehicle? Anybody have any knowledge on this?
