i did a s5 t2 into a gxl ,it was quite succesful if you need help email me at verly6565@yahoo.com my next step was to paint the car black while the engine is out ,i have a bnr stage 2 turbo ,npr fmic safc ,i will be soon going to a haltec, walboro pump rewired 720s tid mod exhaust,im still learning more about this car,

 

Uh that isn't an S5 AFM which is not good. are you running the S4 EFI setup? if so you're go ing about this really bad.


And light that front facia on fire man. Stuff like that shouldn't even be produced.

 

Yeah I hope ur not trying to use the s4 ecu with that motor.

 

If you're using all S5 sensors , you need the S5 ECU. You do know that the CAS on S4 is from the drivers harness and S5 from engine harness right?
S5 TII meaning short block or long block? I assume you have the S4 AFM so you are using S4 harness?? A swap isn't a success until you start it up and runs.

 

Sure, dropping in the engine is the easy part.
Why don't you report back in when the car is running...

yes this car purrs like a cat 750 idle,i used s4 ecu s4 harness ,s4 front cover, s4 intake,a trick to take the front cover is just ubolt the front the front bolts on the oil pan then remove the cover,then use high temp coper gasket sealer , it will never leak oil,dont forget squirt some in the bolt holes,it very simple ,the mechanical pump is more reliable.
