As long as you don't use the 07 cylinder head, then you are fine. No need to change any sensors.

However, this does opening up that nice stock motor

Thanks man

Yeah I dont want to swap heads, and I do want to be able to use the ap1 ecu to pass emissions. Thanks for that information!

So I want to be clear, and 04/05 if I want to use a f22 and that should be strait forward same as f20 with no issues?

Thanks guys!

i am currently running an ap2 in my car. Biggest issue i remember was getting the fuel line to work. I needed to buy a ap2 fuel line from the firewall to the motor.

If you buy the Hondata Kpro now, you can swap in that 07 entire motor (still use the 01 intake manifold, injectors, etc)....no need to swap heads

you would be buying the kpro designed for 04-05 cars

Really, what is that about? Was it just a fluke with your particular car or is that an issue with all swaps? I dont see why that would be an issue.

Im not swapping in a k pro stand alone. I am swapping in a hondata intake manifold gasket. Sorry if there was a missunderstaning there

Yea, I was just saying if you really wanted to swap in that 07 long block, you could with the Kpro standalone.

Honestly, as long as your f20c is fine, you might as well spend the money on injectors/pulley/aem or kpro rather than a new motor..

Motors not fine, my tuner sucked. EMS would be in the works, but budget only alows for motor first so I need to go back to stock ecu and fpr for now with my CT. Also I need ability to pass emissions so my ecu has to work with the new motor. I would remove the EMS and injectors every 2 years to take emissions and then put back after the test. You know that deal
