They are the same sized turbo, just better flowing manifold and bigger wastegate hole(s).



The reason why the the S5 makes 18 more HP is mainly due to the boost increase.

Not true. S5 are NON twin-scroll. Mazda went with a fully divided manifold for S5

This is proably in the FAQ, but they are Hitachi HT-18's. Not sure what other turbo it's equivalent to, but its between a T3/T4.



The size doesn't. Manifold, wastegate does.

oops. sorry for giving wrong info.



the s5 has two holes for the wastegate right

 

The S5 has 2 wastegate holes. S4 has 1.



But the S4's wastegate can be ported bigger than an S5.

 

Ya im pretty sure the turbos are equivelent to T3's.

 

the s4 is ht-18, s5 is hx-18.
