Cool diff

there should be no problem with this its an easy swap the only diffrence is that the S4 rears were clutch type which most appear to prefer anyway. The S5 are usualy viscus type if there limited slip. Make sure u are using the larger turbo half shafts as well the na half shafts are smaller and will not work well 4 turbo. Drop the entire rear carrage and change out the rear and bolt it all back as one assembly then connect the drive line and you are done!

yeah a ring and pinion won't solve your problem. you need the turbo companion flange the turbo drive shaft won't bolt up to a na companion flange .
