You can install S5 manifolds onto an s4 motor. Search and there are many write up on it.

The S5 UIM, S4 LIM, and S4 TB were used on a car that produced 5-9HP more then stock with the upgrade using VDI and an RPM switch.

I did it, very much worth it. Go to www.teamfc3s/forum and search for s5 intake swap, there are two great threads going into detail about the swap, including the problems encountered and some different ways we dealt with them.

Heck, there are 20 threads dealing with that swap here if someone wanted to search. I think there are even one or two in the 2nd gen archive.
