Turbo front cover on 6port fitment
My question is does the turbo2 front cover fit on a 6port motor? Is there any modification or fab required? Are there any compatibility issues between s4/s5 covers? Looking to take advantage of the turbo oil feed.
Apologies my search skills are subpar.

There are differenced between the S4 and S5 covers. The S5 has a different metering oil pump flange and I believe, though best to confirm this, that there are interference issues with the S4 water pump housing.

There are a whole host of compatibility issues between the S4 and S5 covers ranging from the metering oil pump, water pump, and front counterweight interference. Within a series, the Turbo II and naturally aspirated covers are interchangeable. The only difference is the oil feed.
