Default 1997 Subaru Impreza Outback 2.2L to 2000 Subaru Legacy Outback 2.5 swap

Hi,

We are trying to swap a 1997 2.2L Impreza 5-speed to a 2000 Subaru Legacy 2.5L which was also a 5-speed. I am reading that the wiring harness changes after 1999, is this a huge deal or is the swap still possible? Can the 2.2L ECU run the 2.5 the way that it can run the Impreza 2.5RS motor?

Thanks very much ahead of time,

Chris
