Default k20 type r piston kits

I am looking at getting a set of type R pistons for my a3, my question is will they work in my a3. they are standard size 2.0 k series pistons, i would think they would be ok, but if anyone out there has info that says they wont that would be great.

why dont you just get a k20a2 swap i think in the end you will end up spending about the same amount of cash on putting bigger pistons in your a3
