S4 vs S5

Been looking at FCs for some time now and was wondering what the pro and cons are between the two generations (s4 & s5)



TIA

Most people try for S5, overall newer, more power, a lot of people prefer the taillights, etc. The S4 are usually easier to find and cheaper. Also the S4 have a mechanical OMP so it can't fail...or you could just remove it and premix.
