I am sure someone will find a way to trick cpu and then find a way to open air intake, run bigger injectors and open exhaust but its alittle more involved then the older motor where you just change a few parts and make adjustments with screw driver.

You're talking serious cash with cpu work and bigger injectors. If you want to hop up a motor a tldi isn't for you. Get a merc 40 or a tohatsu with carbs on it. The days of hopping up new outboards is pretty much over. Buy a new motor, put a tach on it and prop it right and work on the setup. The fuel efficiency a new motor gets should make up for not being able to hop it up.
