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.

Has anyone made a plug with a switch, so you can have it both ways?
Or do you need to disconnect the battery, to reset the brain?

You did a good thing. I was talking with some local friends and we decided that you know, even with a 4 cyl, the 928 would still have been an excellent student's car. Better watch the stereo stuff, it can get spendy.
