I saw a video on Youtube that they uploaded, and I think they were able to retrofit a few hundred or maybe a thousand or two bikes in Malaysia or something. No idea what happened after that.

They had a fuel pump, a replacement head with the injector, and probably some sort of replacement oiling system.

Ideally you'd have a separate supercharger ish thing rather than using the crankcase to pump air too, and at the expense of a small amount of pumping loss you can greatly diminish the importance of exhaust tuning. Two strokes have a lot of potential...I think I've seen somewhere that piston ring wear due to the uncovering and covering of ports is an issue for reliability as far as adapting them to cars goes however :/ Emissions control is obviously quite a bit tougher too, although using a timed exhaust valve would help.
