engine diferences 98-2000 Legacy

Welcome theloony1. Do you know the chassis or engine codes for both vehicles?

Mid 98 changed from BD5/BG5 to BE5A, engines are very different.

Mid 2000 changed from BE5B to BE5C, same engine but different compression ratios between the two (8.5:1-9.0:1)

Ignore the b4 and gt names. Means nothing other than the b4 is a sedan and gt is a wagon. Year differences makes a difference though. Are they still in the car or whats the situation?

Easier to tell based on the revision number.

ok both engines are in the cars and looking at them bothe they have the same inlet manifolds etc. What im trying to do is take the 98 engine and put it in the 2000 b4. My plan is to take all the inlet manifolds of and the loom that runs under it on the 98 engine and put the 2000 b4 inlet manifold and loom on to it. so basicaly use the 98 block and heads with all the parts from the 2000 b4 engine

I can keep the b4 loom and just put the 98 gt ecu in will just need to change the plug pinout or will it just swap streight over. i have done ecu pinout changes before so its not a big deal just takes time and patience

Ok so let me just confirm this i can just pull the engine from the 98 gt and drop it streight into the 2000 b4 as it is without changing anything and then just swap the 2000 b4 ecu for the 98 gt ecu and it will run with no problems

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
