    Early to late model ECU swap???

    Im wondering if i can swap the ECU from a 91' 325 to my 87' 325. They are basically the same car but do have subtle differences. I dont see why it wouldnt work & you dont know until you try but i was hoping to get some info before i fry something in my car by doing this or something. Thanks for the help.;)

    Yes it will work just fine assuming your 87 is an i or iS. If it's an Eta it will not work.
