S5 or S4 ?

i was just wondering how to find out if the motor is an S5 or an S4, is there something to look at to find out what it really is...

the AFM is a good indicator......S4's have a large silver "square looking" one, where as an S5 has a round tubular black one.

On an N/A the UIM is also a good indicator.

Also, there will be 2 TPS's on an S5, only one on an S4
