Dac .... If you have to run s5 rotors those are going to be higher compression... Even if they are t2 s5 rotors.
They are S4 T2 Rotors.
I'll post some pics soon. I'm just about done with the exhaust porting and then will begin putting it together.

Thats a pretty bold paint job. Why didn't you go for the gold and paint it hot pink?

I know your being sarcastic. The color is more of a lime green. the hue is way off in the picture but hey it's it was taken with my iphone under florresant lights.
I'm tired of black... I have 3 black cars. Lime green is a little LOUD, but then again so is the car.

Very nice. That is the first time I have seen a whole engine painted! Normally you see the whole striped effect. Are you about ready to put it in?

Yeah I debated about that. My buddy says it's too much green. But I don't have everything on the motor. That is a mock up.
I think I'm about 30 days away, but now not sure about my flywheel and my found out my turbo is chewed. Apex seals when through it, but visually it looked okay until I pulled the housing apart to port the wastegate. I'm stuck using a S4 Turbo due to space restrictions in the Suzuki. But it was putting out 16 PSI of boost before I killed it.

EEEEKKKKK 16 psi on stock s4 turbo?! Please dont say TMIC. 
If so I'm pretty sure ..that's why it blew. The stock turbo is only good for 10ish psi with stock TMIC (read top mount interheater). I wonder what power you were putting out right before it blew though. 
30 days. I am counting down. I can't wait to hear/see some numbers!
