They are interchangeable from Turbo to Non-Turbo within S4 from my experience.

My GXLs N/A is using a Turbo S4 BACV.. Unless the seller was dishonest..

Hmm, I think the Turbo BAC has a slightly different plug (the guide pin is offset instead of in the middle).

Nah... Cody posted those pictures so he could put the stuff in ebay, but didn't get the right years and models.

Youre only half right, Icemark. I have a pretty decent memory, so everything I am learning about these parts and functions sticks in my head for future reference.

Anyhow, I got more parts, and will play the game again....brb...

That one was.

The 87+ moved it from the fender out between the bumper and the rad.

The plugs work, but they are not the same.
The N/A BAC is not adjustable (easy idle setting for turbos), and the plug connectors face different directions.

If you put a N/A BAC on a TII, the plug will then face towards the passeneger side hood, as opposed to the passanger side frame-rail, and you will have to set the idle via the secondary throttle stop plates.

I only know this is true for S4's.

I thought the overflow was up by the strut tower on the GXL models only, and the base model had it by the front bumper?

This FC ran fine...but, since I already have 1, I figured I'd take this one apart, and learn more about them as I go.

While we're waiting for me to post more parts....what are the basic functions or purposes of the items not yet explained?
I did the same thing when I got mine, well still doing it. Have taken almost the entire car apart and back together again, seriously. I got pics lol. There is just so much good engineering in our cars it makes me cream myself when I think about all the neat little things they have, but somehow they missed out on the cupholders, probally a good thing though, there would be a lot of messy sticky cars if we had them.
