Nah... You get an ECU out of a Saturn that already has a DOHC engine in it... That way it's already programmed for the new engine you're dropping into it...</span>

You will need:
-1993-1994 DOHC engine
-1991-2002 MP2 Manual transmission or 1993-1994 MP7 automatic depending weather your car currently is a manual or auto
-1993-1994 instrument cluster
-Throttle cable
-A/C brackets
-Power steering pump brackets
-DOHC fuel pump
-DOHC exhaust manifold and downpipe.
-And 1994 DOHC PCM with the same options you currently have (ie: A/C, cruise control and if your car is an automatic or not)

And I wouldnt get thePCM listed in that ebay auction. Obviously the sell doesnt know about the differences in Saturn PCM's

I did a similar swap in a 1993 SW1.
