Just sent an S5 turbo to BNR for rebuild. Will the S5 manifold bolt up directly to my S4 motor, or will it need machining. I'll take the car to a shop to have the swap done, but Id like to have some idea of what's involved. Thanks!

Nope bolts up great.

 

I'm doing it also... No problems

 

Nice upgrade! I did it myself.

 

Thanks! Any ballpark idea on how long it takes to remove the old one and install the new? Like I said, I'll take it to a shop, but I don't want to get billed for 10 hours of labor if it should only take 4.

do it your self... takes a coulpe hours and some gasket gooo

 

Did mine about a year ago, and best I remember you need to use the oil drain back line from the S5 as well. I know they are different lengths. The oil supply lines are different also. I'm not sure which one I used, but if you got all that with your S5 turbo you're good. Like the other guys have said, the manifold bolts up no problem. The only other thing that I can think of is you'll have to plug the vacuum line for the twin scroll actuator, which the S5 turbo does'nt have.

 

Damn...didn't realize I'd need to buy more parts. I knew this sounded too easy
