swaping a 95 318 obd1 ecm instead of my stock 1991 318 ecm? would the motor run the same or would it be more efficient?

thanks

I don't think you can just swap the DME's... The harnesses and some other parts/sensors vary from vehicle to vehicle, especially the difference between years...

correct.

the e36 m42 has knock sensors, and a variable length intake, those are the two main differences as far as that goes.

Though I doubt it would be any more efficient
