Off the top off my head i think the dewy ecu is a mondeo 2 litre one so if the pins havent been altered to suit the change you're basically pissin in the wind and it wont run right unless you swap the neccessary pins or replace with standard ecu, hope that helps

yes the dewy is a mondeo 2litre ecu but is plug and play for the xr2i wiring loom so ive heard at least but i know have a pinout for ecu so between that and haynes will hopefully be on to a winner
