We used the same ECU from the 3k on the 3.5L, no problems at all, runs great.

HUGE!!! I have some mods on it already I can go up to 75 on second gear a little bit before redlining. It has definitely way more torque than the 3.0

Another member who did the swap said

lol. congrats man. i just did the swap myself. i'm sure you will have a grin from ear to ear when you realize the difference. i just took mine to the track and broke a cv shaft from the torque. it will run a low 14 once i get new tires, and a cv shaft. i'm at 14.5 now. :^

are you planning on doing this swap?

My old engine was already burning a lot of oil and I did no want to rebilt it so I did some research on the 3.5L Pajero, the engine alone was $ 1399 plus $340 for shipping and $300 for install. So around $2040. I also considered doing a TT swap but the engine alone was at least $1800 for a Gen 1 plus cost of shipping, install and all the accessories like intercooler with pipes, oil cooler, ECU and other lines and hoses. I decided on the 3.5L because I did not had a lot of money to go TT and I needed my car soon for school and work.

If you are planning on doing something similar, go for it, either way you won't regret it.
