u need the engine ECU. i'd get the engine wiring loom anyway(the x14 may be slightly different). you also need the transponder that is on the ignistion barrel of the doner car....

Hey guys might be too late but im just converting my X14XE corsa to a X16XE corsa and eveything fits straight on, ecu, loom the lot, x14 and x16 ecu's are slightly different but have the same maps apparently so you shouldnt have any troubles running it, obviously if u dont get a new ecu u dont need the 3 transponder chips, thot i wud add as i am experiencing the conversion, catch u l8r
