S4 & S5 driveshafts

what is the differences between the Non turbo S4 and non turbo S5 driveshaft? are they swapable? Looking for an effective way to decrease drivetrain power loss. I found a carbon fiber driveshaft that has about a 5% gain in hp. Looking to combine this with a lightweight aluminum flywheel (not sure which one yet...i like the ACT streetlite tho) and a organic/street disc clutch (also not sure, probably ACT) Will i run into a problem if i use S5 tranny parts on my S4 tranny? IE. the ACT streelite flywheel and street clutch. Im not sure if they have it for the S4 model. thanks

I think they are the same. The difference are between the non turbo and the turbo driveshaft. S4 or S5 doen't matter. The transmission are the same.

9.5Lb aluminum flywheel, counterweight, hardware and bearing kit, ACT street clutch set. -$750.

is there any chance that the S5 is a larger diameter?

my friend took apart this parts car that had a thicker driveshaft then our stock S4 N/A's. The weird thing is that it bolts up to the stock drivetrain
