Unhappy Need Help! Installing Cosmo RE13BT on FC3S

Guys, I need help. I did some search on this topic, but seems no one real detail instruction how to do this. Can anyone help me? I have the engine mount custom made. FC tranny is mounted on the RE13BT. Only problem is ECU. I was comparing FD3S's ECU with Cosmo RE13BT wire, they seem will fit. But will it work right? If no Can anyone give me a detail ECU wiring diagram or instruction how to put FC's ECU on Cosmo's wiring. I will make the twin turbo to non sequential. Since FC ECU cannot control that. Please help me to complete to project. Thanks!

No, this is not recommended.
The Cosmo sequential twin-turbo system is slightly different than the FD3S 13B-REW sequential twin-turbo system.

The stock Cosmo ECU does NOT work unless you're using the Cosmo auto trans.

Who told you you could use a 13B-REW FD3S stock ECU???

I'm not expert, but from what I know/read, this is a huge project with lots of money to be invested in. Instead of compromising an FD ecu, could you not use an aftermarket standalone ecu?
