why inGod`s name would you want to put an a3 in there? i have an ep3/si, and the a3 is crap.

if you must tho...... check
http://www.car-parts.com you should find an a3 really really cheap.

Or keep an eye around for EP owners who have done or are doing a swap and want to get rid of theirs. You'll probably find more A3s over at k20a.org.

I'll probably keep mine around for safekeeping when I finally do manage a swap, but that'll probably be next year or so.

The A3 isn't really crap; it's just less performance-oriented than its -A and -A2 cousins. Who needs over 300 whp anyway?
