1) If you do this make sure you get it in writing upfront.
2) There are a lot of parts missing on your list to do this swap correctly. Heck, there are a lot of parts missing to simply put a 6-speed in a 5-speed car.
3) Make sure your tech has done this before. There is no replacement for experience in this. Trust me, I have bailed out a few shops that have committed to these projects and then found themselves over their heads. Guess who is left with the bill for all those extra hours learning how to get it to work (see point 1)
4)Iif they are going to mickey mouse it and not update to the 7.8 DME but simply use an rpm switch and reprogrammed DME to make it work I personally would walk away.
