I have an s5, and it looks like the pics, but those aren't the best pics so its hard to say. Just be careful buying, do some research on this seller, I've heard so many horror stories of people buying engines online, and not just rotaries either. Protect yourself, and good luck tracking down that swap!

Judging by the pipe that goes from the turb to the IC it is a s5, the s4's are normally metal. Also I can't see a rod for the OMP, that also leads me to beleive that it is a S5.
