Hi,
I'm looking at some options with regards to beefing up my VY S (seeing as it's worth next to nothing to sell :bang, so of course forced induction is at the top of the "wouldn't that be cool" list.
At the moment one option being seriously considered is picking up a factory supercharged V6 and dropping it in, but working with my brother (who does all of his playing over on the Ford side) we're concerned about some possible gotcha's that we haven't come across yet.
Specifically we were wondering about how the ECU would handle going from an auto (in the donor car) to a manual (in the recipient)?
Can anyone warn of any other little quirks or tricks we should be aware of that would make this a silly idea / trickier proposition?
Thanks in advance from a new member
