Go to www.206GTiDrivers.com

I could post most of what you have to do but the details are on there and many more people qualified to advise. FYI it will need an ECU, and AFM swap to match the engine (assuming that you have a Jetronic in the 405, if not then it may need more).

Not sure the 405 intake manifold will fit and the 405 head is different but as said go to the above website, I don't that much detail about the 405 spec.
