06 STi motor into a 04 STi.
I recently blew a ringland in my 04 sti, I am looking to pick up a low-mileage used motor for the time being while re-building the original motor. The motor I am buying is out of a 06 sti, and is complete from turbo, to wiring, etc...
I know everything will bolt right up, my main concerns are if their are any changes from the 04 to 06 motor especially electrical, like sensors, etc... that I will need to swap before putting the motor in. I will be using the 04 ECU, and have all the original parts off the 04 motor.

Anybody? I have tried searching but most swaps are for STi motors into a WRX and I couldn't find anything other then differences between each model year.
If not anybody have some insight on where I might be able to find my answer? |

Should be the same motor. You can use all of your stock 04 parts (wiring, ECU, turbo, etc) and swap them right over.
You can call a dealorship and compare "model numbers" between the 04 and 06 longblocks. |

Only swap out the longblock then. Keep all your 04 sensors and such. Only swap out the hard parts and the sensor differences wont matter.
