Hi Guys!

Short question, i hope you can help me...



is this a S4 or a S5 turbo? can you see this on this pic?

 

i believe its too small a picture to tell, of course I wouldnt be the one to tell you either way. Try and get a better pic though.

 

if it has a small circle for the wasgate its an s4 if its a bigger flapper then its a s5

 

it's a pic from ebay and the seller don't have answered on my mail today and there are only several hours left... :/

i've also thought the pic is too small, but maybe somebody can tell me... the ports are different sizes, isnt this only on s4's so? (i hope )

 

see my post above, its a pic from ebay and i will buy this turbo but i don't know if its s4 or s5

 

the picture is large enough to tell
seriously, if you guys cant tell from this picture, you shouldnt be replying to this thread.
it is a s4

 

Zenki / S4
Two different size passages for the turbine...

And turbine housing bolt partern, and shape.

 

big thx guys!

so i was right with the 2 different ports

so i will get him... only 30.000km, 20 hours left on ebay and only 15$ this moment hrhr

 

That photo is definitely big enough to tell...

Main things are:
1/ Turbine housing is 'squarer' than the S5
2/ Turbo to Manifold flange bolt pattern is an odd shape, S5 is pretty much a rectangle.

Other ways that aren't shown in the pic:
3/ S4 has a straight actuator rod, S5 has a bent one
4/ S4 has one wastegate hole, S5 has two.

Can't think of any other ways off the top of my head, but these are just the easiest ways!
