    Need to know what you're starting with before being able to give advice on those things.

    I've got a 1.2i merit + single point injection was hoping to put a 1.4se in with the multi point injection on it

    Good stuff. So once you've swapped out the engine fit the 1.4 mpi engine loom and splice it into the spi wiring. There's plenty of it on an spi so should find the right colours!

    It'll be an in tank pump so get an mpi pump from a mk3 astra.

    Splice means join the new engine loom to the existing 1.2 loom. The 1.2 ecu is discarded
