That's what I thought, just considering options for a swap when I move to a different state. Unfortunately all have this problem from what I can see.

Understood, but how do you interface with them? USB?

Each standalone has it's own way of dealing with communication. Motec communicates via Ethernet port.

This is so cool! I can't wait to see what it looks like with accessories hung as low as possible, and a radiator in from of it.

What's your thoughts on RHD capability? Routing the manifold under the engine to the LHS or for OEM overpipe type clearance as that looks like the one you have fitted would go straight through our steering setup.

i seriously cannot wait for this. This is going to be the best swap for mild power. Perfect for time attack or a REALLY fun HPDE car. In for final, polished, finished results. absolutely love this!!!

you would probably have to make some really wild header that forward faces out of the block, then crosses around the front of the motor, then back towards the firewall. there is no room to run a pipe underneath the motor, the oil pan is already flush with the bottom of the cross member

Any idea on an estimated price for the wiring/ecu? Ready to order these mounts, just want to make sure the wiring isn’t going to cost more than the whole swap.

If it is based on the Motec package, I would guess probably the same price as the 2j and LS swap wiring/ecu. The Motec just cost a lot in general.
