    turbo and frontmount should be OK. Intake I'm not sure - may or may not depending on size, maybe. OEM turbo inlet same I think....
    frontmount can prob make work with some custom piping
    Cobb AP....I don't see any hard issues moving between 6 and 3 as long as unmarried of course. Soft issues (software lock to 6 or 3) could still be a roadblock - research that with Cobb if it's not in the forum archives, I'd say.
    Coilies - I'd be surprised. I know BK to BL three they are transferable with one bolt size difference. Maybe a trivial change needed? Can't say off top of my head. Short answer no, long answer maybe if you.....
    Exhaust definately not. Even downpipe is different I think.

    I was lucky when my BK3 was up for reconditioning (250,000K, burning oil) I got a very low K BL engine and swapped out. I would consider that kind of minimum $ solution to a bad compression scenario if there's still low K engines around. I'm hoping to see 500000K on BK before I need to seriously think about that again.

    I'm going to sticky this thread because I'd like to build a reference area for questions like this at some point.

    You can also go to an online shop such as Edge Autosport https://edgeautosport.com/ and compare part numbers between different models.
