As long as it is not an X51 option, it is exactly the same engine as your car come with. In fact, it is the same from airbox to the mufflers. There is no difference in the engine between a C4S and a C2. You should be able to plug in your oem harness, computer and it should run fine.
Thanks for the advise, i gave Oklahoma Foreign a search - they have an 03 engine with 79k miles for 9 grand so to me looks like I am paying what I should be. Of course it would be nicer to catch a steal but to be honest I just wanna get this puppy on the road at this point.

How can I check if it is the x51 option? Unfortunately I bought the engine from someone who isn't really all that knowledgeable so I'd have to get all the checks done myself.
