Question Will my IO-550-N run on 115/145 fuel?

Hi there,
I am planning a trip to eastern europe and have some fuel availability issues.
I know the approved fuel grades for the Conti is 100LL or 100. Continetal says the minimum grade is 100...So here is my question:
What happens if you put a higher grade in your engine?
Has anyone tried 115/145 (purple) fuel in their Cirrus SR22?
Does anyone know , and on which base, if it will /won't work?

Thanx a lot,

John
