As for this motor, this would save me a bucket load of $$ I wonder if its a good option though? Can I drop this enging into my car even though its a different head? I would assume the k20a2 can still go in the type s?

I was being sarcastic. I saw a gain of 40kw at the wheels, and that was a fairly basic K24 build. The part that impressed me the most was the torque, which was almost flat from 1,500 to 8,000.
Also chat to a engineer about doing the transplace as there are a few things you need to look in to (Depending which state you are in)
- If engine transplants are legal in your state
- If you have a certain amount of displacement increase to work with (Normally a %)
- If you can fit an engine that is older then the OEM engine (Which means you are going to be limited to which engines you can use)
A K24 & K20 make roughly the same power (147-150kw), so you shouldn't have any problems with having to ungrade brakes, or power to weight ratio's.
But I would highly advise you either do your own research, or talk to the person that is going to be doing the engineering certifcate for you before you start the build.
