Exclamation s5 turbo

My s4 turbos coolant seal is going out so I'm just gunan put a stock turbo in. But then i thought i'd upgrade to an s5 turbo. Does anyone know the diffrence like when it come to how fast it spools or holding more psi. I heard they were basically the same but does anyone have one for sale that is in good condition. I dont want another turbo going bad on me. I love my car and I wanna drive it but i cant if **** keeps breaking. Thanks guys.

search you'll find the answer to the differences in both turbos and make sure you find the turbo and manifolds everything is not the same....

Turbos have no "coolant seals" so WTF are you talking about?

s5 turbo is not twin scroll, wg opens at ~7.5 psi, wg passages are different, manifold and flange are different, so are the lines in and out.
