Thanks
The tuning company I'm working with says it is definitely possible. However, it's not a simple matter of cut and paste. The have to make a custom
maping that will make use of the new intake manifold. The ecu of the 325 shares the same part number as the 330 as well as the engine block, pistons injectors, exhaust etc. The only differences are in the ecu programming, intake maifold and the ehaust tip.
