As long as you keep your foot out of it, it should drive fine.
Remember, the RS2 type software is going to try for more boost.
Like 320 HP worth.  That may spin the K24 rather tight, and it
will certainly be very octane sensitive since the higher pressure
compressed air coming out of the K24 will be a lot hotter than out
of the original RS2 turbo.

Octane sensitive ???  see my page on Toluene  :-)

With use of common sense, go ahead ...  the RS2 exhaust manifold
will help keep the end cylinder's valves cooler, so do that before
you get into serious high temperature flogging.
