98 tune - 95 fuel?

Hi all - so when I purchased my FG-X Turbo, it has already had tuning done. On both the engine and the transmission. Apparently, according to the previous owner had a 98 tune, but on the fuel door it only says Premium Fuel Only, on a aftermarket sticker. 

 

Without trying to get onto the original seller, is there any way to find out whether it might be 95/98 compatible, or only 98? Such as using a scan tool possibly, not sure if it’s something that would be identifying within.

 

at this point I don’t want to just dump 95 in it and hope for the best - but hoping there’s a way to find out on my own before chasing up previous owners and tuners.

If it's been tuned, it would have been tuned for 98 only, in your case. If you run a lower octane you are a chance of it running into detonation scenario's under high load. Once it's tuned, you can remove and/or ignore the sticker on the fuel door. :)
