Would that work.. putting a ECU for a turbo engine in a non turbo engine?

you could try.

i wouldnt have thought so as the twin cam ecus are different in pin layout. they may physically fit but wether itll work totally different story . im gonna say no and ask why its not like itd give anykind of performance increase.

its not like jamming in a turbo ecu will make your engine grow a turbo.

just swapping the ecus wont work.
