I had similar issues getting systems to work in the early days of F-Models when going full PDM and standalone. This is because the ABS, ICM and EPS all work on FlexRay together, which makes things a tad difficult.
Has someone done this before to use the F8x ABS module on the E9x? Just curious on a rough estimate on costs for this type of work.

Being able to convert the F8x ABS module to the E9x is desirable since the used F8x ones are cheap (less than 90 USD) and plentiful. A new E9x ABS module (hydraulic and control units) is over 2800 USD.
