s4:WHY?:

1. ECU is more forgiving to mods, ie OMP removal and emissions delete. N/A if you standalone

2. Less weight

3. Better LSD in LSD equipped models. GXL, turbo

4. Less Weight

5. Taillights don't look like thunderchikkens and are waaaay cheaper

S4!



I do like the look a bit better of the S5 T2's though. That's about it.
