I don't know much about swaps yet, but you're talking about a 2.0L vs 2.4L, so I don't know if that'll be a *perfect* drop in.

what does the a8 come out of? if its not a type r vehicle no way in hell it comes close to a k20a, even if the numbers are the same...from what ive been told the way in which the real type r motors are manufactured and assembled is far more particular and precise than regular production engines...

hopefully someone with more specific knowledge can chime in

they come in an 07-08 accord. You will need to run an unmodified rbc intake manifold or drill and tap to run your prb intake manifold, a crv passenger mount bracket and 310cc injectors if you plan to run it with your stock ecu with minimal to zero mods. When you add bolt-on's you will need k-pro.

well i do have k-pro and 550cc injectors so i just need the passenger side mount and that it? the intake manifold is no a problem i have one already...so the motor it will fit with no problems
