Not if you want it to run right.

The M52 management is light years ahead of the old M50, fitting M50 management to an M52 is a downgrade.

Either wire up the EWS or get it deleted from the ECU

Wiring up the EWS is not difficult, it's about 7 wires iirc and the added security is always a good thing. But if wiring and soldering isn't your thing, speak to Dan above about EWS delete.
