Think they use V8's now but if you go previous to this year you can get a V10...best go w/ what's current . Make sure it's the right OBD and all .

SIR2 uses P30 pistons so it has slightly more compression. SIR comes in OBD1. The intake manifolds might be a little different I forget

If you got a EJ1 just get the SIR2, it'll be easy and no wiring changes really
