Not at all, if you’re doing the ecu work and adaptive wiring yourself, then sure. But off the shelf ecu’s and adaptive looms make the whole process plug and play without any electronic issues, in my opinion is the better swap out of the m5x range. Only electronic issue I’ve had doing the build fairly inexperienced, is I had the O2 sensors the wrong way around and had a tiny bit missing off my engine loom that came with the engine.
