You can adapt just about anything with money and time. The springs under the OP sender are for the bypass circuit

Hi Ray-

I'm not aware of any aftermarket throttle bodies that are plug and play for either an 85 Euro S or an 86.5, and I'm not sure that the throttle body would be the limiting factor in airflow in either car. If you're looking for more power I'd start with exhaust and/or Ken's S300 chips for the 86.5

Hi and thank you. I already have a 3.5 inch single exhaust and kens chips on the 86.5 so i am in the process of putting an 87 motor in the 86.5 now . one problem i am having is the top oil cooler line snapped off and took about 1/2 of the threads with it,going to see if i can tap it a little deeper i hope. I see all these 928's with tbs on them and the power they make with some decent cams so i thought i would give that a try. that set up with a turbo such as Colin has on his i would think that would do it. best,Ray ya comments please

Ah, you mean individual throttle bodies (ITBs)? There are a couple of very good threads on them for S4 motors, here are a couple for starters:
