Differences between S4 and S5 turbos?

I have a good condition S4 turbo, however my car is an S5 TII. Is there any way of using the S5 exhaust housing from the turbo and bolting it onto the S4 turbo so it bolts on to the stock manifold? or are the exhaust wheels different trims?


thanks,
brandon

The turbos are identical except for the turbine housing, wastegate actuator, and the oil drain / return pipe.
The rest of the turbo can be swapped no problem.

When using the S4 front, you'll have to buy the S4 oil-in line, or bend your S5 up to fit (I'd reccomend buying the S4). Everything else should fit fine, or at least mine did.
