Default K20A3 SwAp to K20A2 or type-r

Sup guys!

Basically I have a base model RSX. I'm wanting to swap my engine either to a type-s or type-r. I was wondering how hard or easy it is? I was wondering if i do the swap if there will be a problem with wiring, computer, or anything like that? Also if you know where I can find one for the best deal, so I can turbo it too! Do you where I could sell my K20A3, if I did do the swap? Need info baddly PLEASE!!!!!!!

Thanks SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the swap shouldn't be to bad, although I haven't had any experience hands on, but haven't heard anything about it being bad. You should def go with the K20A (ITR-engine) if you can. You might as well if you going to do it, more power, better tranny good luck

If you do the K20A-R swap the wiring is usually set up for right side drive. Will this make a difference?
