Hey Gary, that looks amazing.

I've just picked up an RX8 with Chevy L83 running an Emerald ECU and 8HP on a Turbolamik, I'm afraid I'm completely new to this as well and I live in Lincoln so a few miles away but will share what little I learn as I go.

Hi Gary, have you tried the guy's at Garage Whifbitz, they're the UK dealer and have done a number of 8HP swaps.

Just starting the same engine box swap but into a Jag. Do you mind me asking what box you used?

Thats a great swap there and similar to what I am currently planning, engine wise at least.

I am planning on using the GM e38 ECU and pairing a built and cammed LS2 to an N57 8HP in a HSV Senator.

Any tips or issues you've encountered with your build?
