c16xe runs a totally different loom, has a air mass meter instead of a map sensor, doesnt have the egr system or secondary air pump, different ecu, different cams, and is not an ecotech

if both engines are from a x16xe you should be ok with changing just the engines over. are the plugs on the end of the looms the same colour in both cars?
