Car a: -stage 1 (Speedparts) 2.3 manual no alarm or remote no cruise
Car b: lpt 2.0 manual - same model year as car a alarm and remote, cruise control

What would be the effects on each car of swapping ecu and associated kit between cars, and why is this not going to work? (Common sense tells me it won't - but why?)

I am thinking of part-exing the 2.3 for an auto FPT (I CAN justify why that swap wouldn't work!)

is the 2.o non turbo as well?

Im guessing it wont work because the comp puts out diff. levels of evrything because of the diff. size engine....?

Al, it's a 9000 we're talking about, not a 9-5?

 

[Al]

Ooops sorry - yes its a 9000

And is the 2.3 a turbo?
And which model years are they?

 

[mark e]

I don't know about other models, but the ECUs of 9000s tend to be unique to the exact model. Certainly 2.0 and 2.3s are not interchangeable.

2.3 is N reg
2.0 is a P reg

Question will remain hypothetical as I am keeping the car.
