I bought STi III wagon MY96 (RHD of course) I would like to built it in LHD 4-door sedan MY00. I checked wiring looms on both car and i reckognize that looms are totally diferent (different wirings, ECU connectors, dash connectors, different klima electronic etc.) Now it looks nearly impossible to place whole STi RHD wirings to LHD sedan (cannot be mirrored). :-((
My question: Is there a possibility to run STi engine under Link ECU management in MY00 wiring? Could I buy "premapped" Link for STi3? Can I map Link myself (In Czech rep - there are no mappers)? (I have engine technical and theoretical skills). Need I rolling road? Any advice? Thanks

Yes I know. But the target is: Link ECU for 00, original MY00 wiring and STi engine. I know standard turbo MY00 ECU can´t drive STi engine but Link ECU can!! And I could connect STi engine to actual original wirings (there are several connections - ignition, MAP senzor etc. looks be the same. :-)
