U can use your 2i box as it is the same as a frst one. But id recommend getting a ERST box as it has an LSD. If the engine is going into a 2i then the looms are almost identical only the ECU needs swapping basicaly.
U can use the existing driveshafts, but you will need a frst exhaust with a turbo downpipe as well. Also you wil need a frst rad and intercooler as well as frst boost and coolant hoses.

Nearly there^, the 2i box has a different 5 gear ratio than the FRST one, but is visually the same. The loom that would need changing is the engine loom which just plugs in to all sensors and bulkhead.
