I dont know about this engine, but i have done this with an S2000 engine.
The problem is that the ECU in many (if not all) modern cars does more than just run the engine. Many of the other car functions also can be routed through the ECU, so, there is a lot of extra wires and connections that have to be terminated.
Furthermore, emission controls usually have to be gotten rid of. Most race cars do not run evap canisters or things like that. If you just hack these off, this will cause an error and the car will go into limp mode.
With patience and a good factory wiring diagram, its possible to use variable potentiometers to simulate various sensors and terminate them without throwing codes. What you end up with is an ECU with a chopped up wiring harness that looks like a mess; and can be hard to route since the length of the harnesses was never designed for the car its going into...
I'm sure if you are getting an exotic engine you might not have too much trouble getting a factory manual for it. But, that might be a factor. I dont think Lambo and Ferrari just give those away....
But it can be done....
