Rosario:

I too have seen this conversion, but with the E28 intake resonance plenum (fixed). Wonder what the packaging issues are.

Why would someone use the old harness and ECU? They should be $1000 or less on top of a large outlay. Not that much, really.

A person has already done this but wrong. He just installed the motor, headers and used the e28 engine management plus hardness. End results are less power than the oringal motor that was in there. The car is still for sale also.
