89 octane in S4
Well I installed an Australian coding plug on my sons S4 and it runs fine on regular unleaded plus it has that other desired side effect.

Worn plugs (w i d e plug gap) and blackened cap and rotor contact points
makes my engine much less peppy.
Wonder where one would get some recycled Bosch ignition parts.
Hmmmmm.

Time to sell my used cap and rotors on ebay. :-)
