    Don't think that is going to work. 2 different engines of same size. Putting a Gen 3 motor in a Gen 2 car probably won't work at least not easily because the Engine Control Unit on your earlier model car won't be compatible with the new motor.

    Easy swaps are going to be limited to engines of the same type. Audi 2.0T between 09-13 was the CCZA motor and would be a no hassle swap for cars falling in the 09-13 years.
