Have fun.Thats alot of wiring to do.You might as well get a standalone managment system to help simplify it.

It bolts up but it has a electric oil metering pump instead.It'll bolt in tho.Why not just use the S4 front cover for the OMP and run S4 injection on the S5 block?That works and makes for a easy swap.
