Re: v8 swap options
Best of luck in your endeavor!
Keep in mind, there have only been a FEW people on the entire planet that have gotten these to work, and there have been many, many more who have tried and given up. Have you heard about the turbo 'god' Corky at Begi (Bell Engineering)? (if you are into custom stuff and are in the industry I am sure you have) He has had an XF for 2 years, taken deposits on a turbo kit and is no where near figuring out an ECU solution, 26 months later.
I am not bashing anyone or their abilities, but less than 1% of those who have tried have been successful. Unless you enlist one of the ones who have been successful, you will spend 10K on the electronics portion alone and it still will not work...
