    b18b has 9.2:1 compression
    k20a2 has 11:1.

    even if the gap is the same, i wouldnt use it because the type r leads most likely to be 1 step colder than the stock b18b leads.

    but i dont have the gsi service manual nor dc5 service manual so i cant
    be absolutely certain in terms of heat rating and gap.

    afaik dc5 itr stock use iridium while b18b stock use platinum?

    sorry dude.

    ignition leads dont use heat ranges or gaps. I think your getting mixed up with spark plugs.



    as for the original question, you need GSI leads, a DC5 uses coil packs and not leads. you might have a set of DC2R leads that will be fine if they fit correctly.

    make sure you get them on in the correct order and you will be fine
