I just purchased an engine harness, ecu, afm, injectors and fuel rail, intake and exhaust manifolds from an e34 535i. My goal is to install this stuff in a 85 e24. I'm replacing the b34 with a metric mechanic b37 rally engine. I know the 1985 manifold flows less than the later b35 manifold and that is the main reason for the update. My question is regarding what looks to be a drive by wire throttle, which I'm pretty sure I don't want. Anyone here perform this swap? I was looking to eliminate the cold start injector, have higher flowing intake and exhaust manifolds and run the later ecu.
I've performed a similar swap on my e30, I went from the early harness to the later harness, but that swap did not involve a drive by wire setup.

So basically I would like to know what have others done. I did a search but haven't seen the answers I'm after.
