Motronic fuel quality switch??
Do the 993 models still have this fuel quality switch on DME?

I don't believe they do. I think the last car to have that was the 968. (prod ended 1995)

Sometimes chip manufacturers make chips with two maps, one for street gas and one for race gas (100 octane). They wire a switch to choose which map to use. I don’t know of anyone who does this for the 993, though.

Nope. 964 and 993 do not have that switch anymore. There are several maps stored in a 964/993 chip and the DME harness has two coding plugs that decide which maps gets used.
I have made a dual-chip for the 964. It is essentially two chips with a selector switch. Flipping the switch is equivalent to swapping one chip with another. This is very convenient when running street gas and race gas. See here for more details: http://sswl.di.com/~ingo/Chipping.htm Cheers, Ingo
