I imagine it would as its the same engine just had a few tweaks to gain more ponies! Ideally the complete engine, loom and ecu (including ignition and key) also make sure you got a decent clutch when fitting it.

The two engines are exactly the same, only the head/turbo and internals are uprated and I believe the RS block is plasma lined.
