S4 vs S5? Is it worth it swap-worthy?

Other than the obvious difference between the 2 such as the tailights, OMP, AFM, Turbo, rear diff...Is it worth it to swap over from S4 to S5?

Interior, engine? Complete car?

S4 and S5 are so similar in performance that your money is wasted swapping these things over. Unless you like the look of the S5 bumper or something, there is nothing from the S5 that will really make your car feel different when you drive.

That's what I'm thinking too. If you're planning to get pretty serious with the performance, it doesn't seem like there are that much, if any at all differences.

Another thing, rotors are lower compression for s4.
