Arrow s5 intake manifold swap onto a s4

I just wanted to hear if there were any success stories on swapping an s5 intake manifold onto a s4? What were the benefits odf doing the swap? Was it worth the trouble? Do you swap the whole manifold?

Lots of people have done it for the VDI. I dunno what all is needed as i have an s5, but I would assume the dynamic chamber and upper manifold.

Its the best add-on/modification you can do externally on a s4 n/a.

You don't feel it untill about 5000rpm and then you get pushed into your seat till about 7500rpm. Some have only got power till about 6800 which is where my power sometimes tappers off, I think this is more due to the intake temp vs the amount of fuel being delivered. I ran the car on a real cool day a few weeks ago and noticed I needed to add feel up top from 5000-7800. I did and I had power till 7800. On the usual warm days though power ends at around 7200.

Yes, but only if you get the VDI working
