Fuel advice

Hi all, I was just wanting some advice (please) on weather running 95 octane is suitable in my (Jdm) evo7. I live in New Zealand and in certain locations 95 is the only high octane fuel you can get, it's a 4 hour drive to get 98
My mods are 3inch exaust, high flow manifold, K&N air filter and a Walbro fuel pump. My car peak boosts around 1.4bar due to these mods and is running a stock ecu/tune.
Any advice would be appreciated as I'm unsure if it may cause detonation running 95octane.

Thanks in advance for you're feed back

Wow 95 you are lucky, the highest I have is crappy **** water 91. But you should not be causing any different detonation, unless the stock maps you have are more aggressive than what we have here. But just get a retune and you will be fine
