My intentions are to build a daily that can grip corners hard, but still kick the rear end out if i wanted to. I was thinking about getting a S4 GXL diff or maybe a S5 Turbo.

if you want to go up to a stronger turbo diff you'll need a different drive shaft and axles which gets expensive. and the S5 turbo diff sucks too, you'd want an S4 diff or get an S5 diff and swap out the stub shafts and put an FD torsen in it which is better than the S4 clutch type in most scenarios.

side note you may want to check and make sure that a S4 N/A clutch style diff will direct swap with a N/A S5, my experience is with S4 into a S4, and also a lsd into a s5 vert that I had at one point, but I bought that lsd diff not knowing if it was S4 or S5 the seller couldn't tell me, luckily it bolted right in to my vert.
I hope this helps.

The S4 na diff will be a direct fit. The S5 TII limited slip is a viscous style which I don't personally like. They are harder to find and as mentioned would need the axles and a new driveshaft as well. A Torsen is in my opinion the best mechanical limited slip diff available but they are expensive.
