ECU problem's

Well i think i might have an idea why my car wont start , And no mechanic's can figure out what the problem is...

I think i might need to get a 88 ecu?

I swapped a 88 engine into the 87 so it would make sence...

A guy i know has a 88 5 speed 300zx turbo ecu Ready for romulator for sale at 50 dollars.

Will this make my car run like crap? And do you think it will fix my problem?

yeah because turbo cars run different air/fuel ratios. that among other things will ruin how your car runs.
