Sorry to bump this. I'm from the UK too but living in Japan. I'm doing this swap soon, but out here it's a pain finding a place to work etc. so I need to rent a garage for the day to do the swap. Is it literally as easy as dropping it in, plugging the engine harness into the multiplug then swapping the ECU? The ECU i'm using has an EWS delete already fitted.

Yes. Each swap is unique in its own way, though. But still straight forward.

Cool, I'll give it a go soon! Going to do some work on the engine first...thinking of going ARP bolts etc. and turbo'ing it at a later point
