Give me the motor and I'll drop it in along with a custom wired Motec standalone running it

I mean hell, I've put a M5 V10 motor in a sandrail running on a Motec. This can't be much harder

One thing I noticed is that they're still using good ol' Toyota parts out of their parts bin. Time tested and proven parts that will ensure that this will be one of the most reliable supercars yet.
