2017 C43 engine swap to 2020 engine
Hi guys, my engine swap is almost complete and I can wait to show you!!!
here are some questions I have for my project car y’all might be able to answer.
1.) the engine has a 2020 ecu, does this mean I can swap a center console that has the exhaust button for another 2020 ecu?
2.) for 2020 c43 how loud is the exhaust does it crackle (I run fi, but I’m curious to see how it pops stock with a 2020 ecu, or is the kristronix sound independent of ecu?

I don’t want to hate in eurocharged but I think it was due to the tune. A week before the engine blew, a check engine light came on, I took it to mechanic and they said they wont work on it without stock ecu, so I took my handheld tuner and tried to convert it too stock but was getting an error code, I emailed someone at eurocharged they said “key has to be in position 2” (as if I haven’t tuned my engine a thousand times) I told them “it is in position 2” and got no reply. A week later my engine blows. Interestingly I got a private message from someone saying his buddy got a seized engine from a eurocharged tune as well. No hate on eurocharged but that made me furious.
