As Swilmer mentions, the supercharger.
Keep the ECU/wiring loom from original engine and fit it to new one, becuase the newer engines have different ECUs. In any engine swap like this you always want to retain original electronics and swap mechanicals.
The only other thing you may need to keep from the old engine is the 4x VVT solenoids that screw in front of the camshafts, as the connector style changed on later ones. You can get adapter looms (part number is in a TSB) but they're a bit of a PITA.
Other than that I'm not aware of any material differences - I believe engine block design is the same etc even with the 8 speed transmission in later models but if anyone knows different I will defer to them as I haven't spent a lot of time with the newer block.
