ID S5 S4 Intake swap?

So... I started an engine rebuild/overhaul. After clearing every part of the block, I found that the rear rotor housing had warped out of specs in the bottom left corner... That being stated... I found that it would be cheaper to buy a new engine.

I'm running an '86 GXL N/A. And was thinking about swapping a S5 13BTII into my S4 car... I checked the FAQ and it said that there was some debate on the power gains with S5 intake ect. What is the debate?

Also, if I have
100% COMPLETE ENGINE
- Complete Motor
- UNCUT Wiring Harness
- Block
- Head
- Intake Manifold
- Exhaust Manifold
- Sensors
- Fuel Rail
- Injectors
- Throttle Body
- Alternator
- Distributor
- Starter
- Ignition Wires
- Pulleys
- Turbo Manifold
- Turbocharger
- A/C Compressor
- Power Steering Pump

5SPD TRANSMISSION
- Factory Clutch & Flywheel

5SPD ECU (ENGINE COMPUTER)
INTERCOOLER

Would it just be a plug and play engine swap? Any information would be greatly appreciated thanks all!

This one talks about going from S5 to S4, and if I have a full S5 wiring harness and an S5 ECU. It wouldn't matter about the plug-ins being different would it?
