I believe the 20 after the M96 means a 2.5 engine. the ‘U’should be for a ‘96 build, which is correct for a 97 car. So, you have a 2.5 not a 2.7. Without a significant electronic update, it’s very difficult to put in the 2.7 in the early car. It has the wrong DME version to run the 2.7, plus the early cars were cable throttle and the next gen had e- throttle.
