as i am looking on E-bay at the motors and looking online.
someone said that they use the Gen 5 but run the Gen 4 ECU (something about the Key Fob or something)
as i have been digging on the forums there is a lot of info and it goes in all directions so hoping to get some clarity on this, any input is welcome.
