Also, the s5 turbo rotors' higher compression allows more power with a given boost and a bit less lag, not to mention the improvements to the s5's turbo itself.

turbo is exactly the same

manifold is different but thats not the reason why there is more power and torque... its the lighter internals and diffferent programming

oh and if your gonna need some parts more s4 parts are available here and on other forums

S5 reinforced PD? Although S4 is lighter, teh aero package on S5 is nice. Too bad so many stock lips are gone.
