Not sure on how long it would take to reverse engineer the CANbus. But Vit would be writing his own code for this car. Would be faster if someone was in Oregon; if not I’ll probably be shipping him my car shortly.

Also just to keep transparency these stand alone ecu are up in the $5k + range. However the M150 is transferable to other vehicles as long as there’s support for it. Basically you’d be able to transfer to future cars if you ever sold the F80/F82, would just need the harness and update firmware for new car.
M150 won't run DI though so would be a bad choice for this project
