I am having a hard time finding the info I am looking for via search function. Would someone please point me in the right direction. I am swapping the drivetrain from a turbo doner into my 87 NA. If I remember correctly don't the ecu's power differently i.e. main relay and cor relay wiring is slightly different? Just looking for things to be aware of when doing the swap. Thanks
Engine swapping from Turbo to NA car
- Thread starter KMinAF
- Start date
Everything is plug n play as long as the years are matching. Like pre89 yellow plug to yellow plug. 89-90 are the same and 91 and 92 have there differences as well
What year is each car?

Thanks, thats the one I was looking for, just couldn't remember where I had seen it.
Not a problem. That got me through my NA->T build so I knew exactly where to find it. It's under the 7m-ge section as a sticky. It'd be nice to have it under the 7m-gte as a sticky too since that's where most people come.
Addendum.
'89 is its own special year. The ECU is NOT compatible with the '90+. It's grey plug, but actually closer to the yellow plug harness from the pre'89 cars than it is to the grey plug '90+ cars. They hellow plug engine harness will plug into the chassis harness, though with minor issues. Presumably this is the same for the '89 ECU/harness into a pre-'89 car.
