I think things like the MAF gotta be changed too.. **** like that. Sensors and whatnot. Though my experience and work with 1G N/As is limited.

Well, if your just adding a turbo onto your gs wouldn't your stock ecu be fine, as long as you get an afc, or get dsmlink? But if your swapping a gst/gsx in it then it should work, because you'd be changing the whole engine wiring harness too, and the interior one im pretty sure is the same, although not quite sure tho
