Engins swap

Post by Ryan ET »

Hey All,

Im gonna do an engine swap over and the main question I have is

Will my MT8 loom plug straight onto the new engine? The new one has a vl throtle body, will my tps go straight onto the vl throtle body? I am all good with everything else but just need to make sure my computer will work on the new engine

What other problems may I incure with the mt8 going onto a new engine?

well the difference is its a newer engine, its an 87 instead of an 84.

its running a garret t25 turbo instead of a t2. its running higher psi, it also has work done to the engine and an ungraded throttlebody.
