You'd have to have a fuel cut defenser first.



Turbo is a Hitachi HT18.

Turbine housing, wastegate design, and manifold. If you want to swap one for the other, you need the manifold for it.

Stock for stock its pretty close, but if you pull the twin scroll flapper out of a S4 manifold, the S5 one ***** all over it (S5 ones are fully divided).



My old car had a clipped turbine wheel and removed twin scroll, full boost didn't come on until almost 4000 RPM!



But it felt like it had a lot more power than it really did because it all came on at once
