Is it possible to build a TII motor using s4 rotors and rotor housings with the rest s5 parts? If not are there any mods to make it possible? I can get 2 new s4 housings and rotors for free all I have to pay for is shipping so I'd really like to make this work.



Thanks!

the rotors will work fine, but you need the right counterwieghts too.

the rotor housings should also be fine, it might block off the air injection or open the egr port or something

I noticed that when I took off the flywheel that there was a little more steel to one side of it. Is that part of the counterweight and would I have to change the flywheel with the counterweights?



With the rotors, the to give a rotor more compression do you add to the little dip thing or do you remove some of it?

You should be good to go with S4 rotors and housings.You might now have any air injections which is used for emissions.Do you have to pass aircare?Remember you will need the S5 counterwieghts to make it work with your clutch too.

you either need an s4 turbo flywheel, or an aftermarket one with the s4 couner wieght.



dont worry about the compression, it'll just run boost more safely
