You don't need to change the loom, it's the same loom for the X14 and the X16
You will need to use the ECU, Ignition Barrel Transponder and Key Chip form the X16XE car though, everything else you just use from your car.
It's a straight swap.
You can run it on the X14XE and your current key and chip but apparently the ECU has a diff map so it won't be as powerful.

The looms can actually be different, just so you know. Eastend had to change the loom in his x14xe loom for a x16xe one because it just wouldn't run when he did the engine swap.
