I'm told, through Hypotntz7, there Isn't any difference, except more "ribs" to the casing.

Guess that would explain why the crossmember I just bought wouldnt fit, the dealer thought they were both the same.

I believe that the S4 had a 5th ratio of .762 and the S5 had one of .719.I think it is roughly a 10mph difference at any given rpm.
