It runs on the CoilOnPlug (cop) setup, plus there's the transponder issue for security if your planning to run the stock ECU (reflash to remove the code at a dealership is possible). Overall, those motors have the best emissions if your running the stock ECU. It should fit, although the wiring will be a bit of a pain. Are you going to swap everything over or just the motor and run aftermarket ECU? It eats only premium fuel, but it rides like a champ especially with VVT-i.
