S4 & s5 afm

is the only difference the size? does it use the same plug? or would I have to change that.

Totally different. The S4 is a flapper door style, the S5 is a hot-wire (I think that's what it's called) type. The plug and wiring is different. I remember someone once figured out how to wire an S5 one into an S4, it was overly complicated and definitely not worth it.

the S5 is not hotwire..it is still technically a flapper style AFM.

the plugs are different, it can be spliced to work (only difficult if you think splicing 6 wires is difficult)

there's no real advantage in doing this.
