What parts do I need for my 7MGE->7MGTE swap?

[scotty]

Just picked up my new 7MGTE in Denmark, bought it as my 7MGE has just got rod knock.

The engine is without a wire harness/ecu, but that I've got sorted.

I'm basically wondering what parts I need to buy.

The list I've got so far:
Oil Cooler + piping (is this needed?)
Intercooler + piping
Driveshaft? (is it shorter with the R154?? got a W58 now)
Cooling fan? (is it more blades with the turbo engine?)
Downpipe - catback (got that sorted)
Power Steering Reservoir and lines??
AFM??
BOV
Cold air intake filter + piping
Walboro 255?? (hearing that it's good to swap to this)

What more do I need? Need to know EVERY part.

Thanks!

(If you're gonna complain that I need to search don't bother. I've already searched, and there is no exact thread like this)

EDM cooling blades all are the same on turbo and N/A IIRC But you can get a 10blade fan from the US.

That's a NA-T. I'm doing complete swap, no NA-T. But overall the list and guide is good.

There is quite a few parts I don't need there. The highlighted parts in the list is what I know I need. What do I need within the other parts? Is there anything which is not on the list?

CPS (cam position sensor)
Coil Pack
Ignitor
AFM
Accordian Hose (AFM to turbo inlet)
Downpipe (pipe from turbo elbow to first cat)
Oil Cooler
Oil Cooler piping
Intercooler
Intercooler piping
Oil cooler and Intercooler brackets
PCV/ISC hard and soft lines
Power Steering Reservoir and lines
Throttle linkage
Throttle body connections

Other stuff:

Driveshaft?? (see 1st post)
Walboro 255??
BOV
Cat-back / test pipe (thats sorted)

Oh and I once noticed one guy mentioning that he saw a stock 7mge pump going upto 330whp, but can't be sure.
I'd say it would be safe to use walbro (though my local friend has had problems starting in winter and he thinks it's the walbro, but not sure).

ok thanks Think I'll put the Walbro for hold at the moment.. I'll go with the originale until further..

do not put a 10 blade fan on a n/a fan clutch. it will destroy the clutch in less than a week. ask me how i know.

op if you use the same tranny as what you have in there now you dont need to change drive shafts.

You will need a 87-88 harness yellow plug not a gray plug. Its what year your car is not what year the motor is. I had a 87 motor that I put in my 90 N/A had to use 90 turbo harness.

I've already got a harness + ECU sorted out. (is written in 1st post)

If you want to get a 255 you also have to upgrade to a afpr. Use the turbo power steering lines and reservoir the n/a ones are in the way. Keep the oil cooler mount it somewhere in front of the the car. Also you'll want to think about getting a metal headgasket along with arp studs before any major modification starts.
