172 Engine loom advice

Out of curiosity would any clio main engine loom from 99 - 56 loom befine for the 172 (F4R) engine???
 
nope, ph1 172 have cable throttle,

ph2 onwards are drive by wire


But still is that not just a case of not plugging in the drive by wire?? I am only pondering as I am putting a 172 lump into my R5 but I have not been able to obtain the loom yet.

the ECU is a bit more complex than that. If you use cable throttle, you need the correct loom and ECU to go with it. omex 600 with tailor made loom FTW TBH. make it a piece of piss to fit
 
Cheers for the advice guys, will consider looking into standalone a bit earlier than expected if i can't get ECU and matching loom.
