You don't need any other ECU. Just bolt the motor onto your FWD tranny using your FWD flywheel. That should answer your questions.

yup,the motor will bolt up to your FWD tranny,nothing special needed. ditch the cyclone intake manifold,its a piece,put your stock one on the JDM motor.

The flywheel, like any other engine. Ayuk-ayuk-ayuk.

They're very close to our engine power-wise, but have a bit more torque at lower speeds (because of the smaller, faster intake tract when the butterflies on half the manifold are closed). Nothing special, maybe a gain of ten or so.
