I own a 97' Fiat Cinquecento and guess what: it has a MM ECU in it which looks exactly like a 1.6M part of a 748/916/996. But it also has a different classification.
I don't think it comes down to just software. MM does not care about the chip you later put in, when they build and sell their product!!
I would not cheat with that!!
BTW: P8's are supposed to come around ~150,- Euros on a good day.....why gambling for ~50,- bucks?? Be patient!!!
And: a P8 does not fit your 748!!
Greetz,
Dali!
PS: The Cinque has also AMP-connectors AND (VERY interesting!!) a TPS wich looks EXACTLY like the 998 one!!!!
I'm gonna try to get me one and check dat out!!!!

The 16M is strictly for motorcycles. You can find it in Ducatis, Guzzis, MV Agusta and maybe some more. There is a 16F unit for cars that looks the same but are a different thing. Good though if you're need a box for a MyECU, as the box and the connector is the same.
The 8P unit is used on both motorcycles and cars. Fiat and Lancia was mentioned. You also find it in the Ford Sierra Cosworth. I have also heard a roumor that it's also fitted in some Ferrari.
About the TPS: I got a TPS from a Fiat and it has the same form factor as the ones on the Ducatis, but it rotates in the other direction, so take a close look.
If you need a P8 I think I know where you can get one. I sold an extra unit I had with my 916 to a friend of mine and he might be willing to part with it, not cheap though.

The Corse IAW442 is the same as those used on Aston-Martin's of the epoch. They had gold-plated connectors and some higher-end electronics in them, from memory.
We used to buy the Aston Martin ones as spares, because they were a fraction of the price, yet exactly the same part...
Big difference is the ability to drive the third injector the 996 R and early RS used, before they switched to the full all-singing, all dancing Marelli "Red-box" kit in 2001.

Hi Redtop,
this exactly what I said:

Don't know about the facts of the P8 though.

But this even sounds better, if just the resistor and his curve is like the 998's: to get a 998-TPS fixed for a 999 TB you had to machine the second TB to fit the 998 TPS (because of the direction of the 999-TPS rotation was different then the 998's).
That has alwys been a tough job, machinig the axis of the second body.
This way you'll probably have to just get it screwed onto the TB...!!??
Still some luck needed for the TPS of the Cinque having the right Resistor-curve!!!
P8 ECU - same as a automobile unit?
My 916 was a Horrid Blood Sucking Bitch.
