you can have them rebuild the s4 and use the s4 manifold.

Wait... are you calling sticking an S4 turbo on an S5 manifold a "hybrid"?

No.. S5 turbos and S4 turbos flow roughly the same.

A "hybrid" turbo refers to combining two different types of turbos in order to make a new turbo suited to your application. For instance, our cars use a proprietary exhaust flange and aftermarket turbos will not bolt to our exhaust manifolds, a hybrid turbo would modify the stock turbo exhaust housing to accept a different turbo so that you don't have to use an aftermarket exhaust manifold.
