Perhaps he leaves the original car ECU to run the electrics, and have the ECU from the donor car act as a piggyback to run the engine

Looks good, my mates got one fitted into his 205 gti, aside from the bhp gains the torque is the most noticeable difference in his. Makes for a very driveable road car.

My dream was to always own an American muscle car.. But i know I'd could never afford one! There is a Mustang Rouge in red near me and every time I see it I stop and look.. The alloys on it are awful but the rest of the car is beautiful! I'll take a picture tomorrow of the mustang
