There's a reason it isn't done often (yet).
Ok now it get it. It is just like my old 540i. On that car there was a separate module that linked it all together. When it went out the car would not start. Had to get that replaced and reprogrammed to the tune of $1k. That is one of the things I like about older cars not so much technology in them that a normal person can't work on them.

Thanks for the info. I still think I'm going to get the 1uz regardless. There is still room for a turbo setup with that motor and I think with a wimpy 7 lbs of boost I should be able to get into the 300 whp realm.
