Questions before buying..

Alright, so getting ready to do another swap- this time on a friend of mine's 03 Coupe.

I did my swap with a type-s motor so I never even bothered to really look into this, but my friend is on a bigger budget than I and has found a wrecked EP3 with the front end in perfect condition.

Doing some reading, I've found there are a handful of pretty big differences between the Si motor and the Type-S motor, mainly with the vtec systems.

Now- is it possible down the road after the swap has been completed, to maybe swap some parts around to change the system over to the one similar to the type-s?

I know it prob. won't be cost effective, but the EP3 is dirt cheap, and it might be worth it...
