Should be OK. Better than a 93 engine. They updated it a bit and got rid of the rat's nest. 99 spec turbo too... = P~~

by my understanding, the 99 spec ecu is different in programming (because of the turbos).. but the wiring is the same..

i think the 99 spec ecu is 16 bit/32bit... not much changes in the engine... so y not get an older engine and the 99 spec turbo?? doesnt that save more $$$?

99 spec is 32 bit. Wiring and plug are NOT the same.

yeah not much of anything changes with the engine- just newer.

I believed Hong Kong mechanic know how to swap engine in cheap labor cost. Don't worry on the swap's stuff, just find a 99's engine is difficult
