Hi everyone well I already own a wrecked ba xr6t with all parts perfect except right hand door and dashboard and have a ba xr6 that needs new engine trans rear sub frame now that parts sorted. After I swap my engine rear sub frame and transmission into the standard xr6 can I just swap computers and turn it on or do I have to change all my looms as well ?? Please help

This one needs a door and dash.

I know which one I'd be swapping parts to or is there more to this story?

So not really then?

 

On to helping though. The short answer is no. The tmap is different.

 

Someone else can elaborate.

The engine loom is different (ecu has 3 plugs not 2) fuel pump is different (but not big enough anyway) change ICC (with bcm) change cluster & It should start & run but lights may come on dash about ABS (if it hasn't got it now) Just put them side by side & start switching stuff, It's not that hard just remember they were designed to be assembled in a hurry so as long as you understand the sequence of installation the dismantling & reinstalling is straight forward

There is a fair difference between those power figures.

 

If you want to make 500 "comfortably" you'll be swapping your turbo and building your motor and drive line.

 

Haha if there was any tip or hint to give it'd be to buy an already built car.
