Wait a minute! If you have an S5, you do not need different hubs at either end. For the front calipers, you need the hard lines. Existing soft lines will work, although it might be a good idea to change out all soft lines for SS lines. The TII rear calipers require a different rotor. The proportioning valve is different on the TII, but you don't have to replace that for the system to work.

And do yourself a favor. Rebuild the calipers before installing them.

And remember very very few models didn't come with the Sport/Turbo heavy duty 4 piston brakes anyway.

If you have a Sport, GXL, Turbo, Convertible, 88 GTU, 89-90 GTUs, or 91 Coupe with A and B packages, you already have the heavy duty brakes.

Only if you have a Base, Luxury coupe, SE, 89-90 GTU, or 91 coupe without A and B packages; then you will have the single piston front brakes and solid rear rotors.
