you'd probably need an ECU too i'd imagine
edit: im a retard! lol.
you'd also need pretty much the whole inlet manifold, injectors etc etc. wouldn't be able to tell you

For the amount of work, what difference does it make what it says on the logbook? You'll still be buggered with an insurance hike so might as well go for a unit (VTR/S) that will be more reliable
