another question:

will s5 tranny bolt right in in an s4 motor ?

and will an s4 tranny bolt in an s5 engine?

sorry for this stupid question.
Yes, but you have to have the corresponding transmission mount. S4 and S5 transmissions have different mounts.

s5 engines have electric omp, easiest way to distiguish vs mechanical s4 omp.

Yes, they are the same. I got a hole in mine in the AE, so I swapped in the one from the vert.

No u just have to get the correct tranny crossmember/Ysection. I have a used s5 T2 crossmember/y section for sale, $40 and its yours. Your putting in a s5 T2 motor right? or is this N/a???
