The harness can be produced with the factory ECU plugs. There is a lot of other wiring in order to have dash function but you can utilize a stock ecu, I wouldn't recommend it, but you can.

No. I can post the weight of mine later to show roughly how it looks, but if you're worried about weight balance engine swaps aren't for you. The boxer sits lower and further back than any other motor can ever do.

Yea they are, I haven't messed with them too much since we still have some moving around to do but so far I'm not in love with them.

We have Xcessive mounts in my car, they sit up a little higher than the CX and they are very different construction.

Not sure yet, they are usually somewhere between questionable and good enough lol. I may try pieces here and there to find repeatability, but I'm not going to rely heavily on them. I have a perfect swap intake manifold for you if you're doing a swap. I have one that clears the booster and lowers the plenum down away from the hood. Email me if you're interested.
