Yea..you will need to drill that hole. Other than that it's a straight swap in.

Keep in mind that the Valve Covers are Center-bolt ones on that LQ4..you will probably have to get the Coil Brackets.

your stock pcm will run it, but youll want to get a tune eventually for it to be spot on, it is after all a bigger motor.
