   am i right in saying that a 8v vtr engine will fit straight into a furio without requiring new loom and that?????

   no lol
   
   you will need the vtr loom and ecu, if your buying a vtr engine surely the engine would come with these?
   
   even if the furio loom did somehow fit, why take the risk of being held up by a loom that doesnt fit?
   
   just get the bits you need and then you know it'll go smoothly, but you'll definitely need the ecu

   nah the loom MIGHT be the same, you could deffo get it to work by swapping sensors over but you would need a vtr loom to swap sensors over so might as well jsut fit a vtr loom lol also the 1.4 ecu will be mapped to a 1.4 not a 1.6 again the 1.4 ecu could run the vtr engine but it wouldnt be nice to drive and wouldnt be getting the full potential out the engine... i could fit a 1.1 ecu to my vts but it wouldnt perform very well lol
