    it probally wouldnt work as the fuel/air ratio is probally different and either wouldnt start or would run like a pig

    but theres no harm in trying

    they are not that different it will start up and run, don't go thrashing it or you will eventually cause meltdown.

    sorted it now. it runs with a lumpy idle. only doing the essential miles in it till my chipped ecu comes back for the pod mission.
