My '94 S4 had the relay, Scott. It currently resides in the glove
compartment along with the manuals and other knick knacks.

I think only S6s have this relay though.  I pulled the relay on my 95 S6,
but on a buddy's 93 S4, we wrapped it in aluminum foil (best heat resistant
readily available item we could think of) and tie wrapped for exactly the
reason you describe.  That way it can easily be returned to stock form.

to disable steering boost has me shuddering thinking about ever wanting to
put it back, like for the next owner, or my wife, etc, when it's exposed to
road grime. Much easier is to remove the Servotronic relay. The one from my
car (1995.5 S6A), which I'm looking at right now, says "362" on top, where
one's most likely to be able to identify it, and then when it's pulled, the
side label says "Servotronic". No mystery, no muss, no fuss, and easy to put
back without having to clean that electrical connector . HTH.
