S4 and S5 turbos compatability

I have an S4 right now could I swap out the S4's turbo and put in place an S5? do I need to use the S5's exhaust manifold or are they the same? I know theres really no hp difference but I'm looking for the faster spool up of the S5's and its better twin flapper wastegate. I'd go with a whole new turbo setup but I have 2 cars and im 18 and don't really have the money for a big swap.

If you do that going from a S4-S5 you will need the S5 turbo, S5 exhaust manifold, and the S5 heat sheilding.

The oil and water lines will fit fine.
