I have a fc none turbo none lsd 7. Im new with this rotor world and really need to know if I swapped my motor with a turbo II if there is going to be any difference in the harness's. Can I just plug in the new one? And I have a t3/t4 turbo I would like to through in it, about how many pounds of boost will I get out of a stock turbo II. Thank's

I imagine the harnesses will be just about the same, you're just going to be using different connectors on that harness...it's that way with the SA and FB cars, but it's entirely possible dedicated harnesses were finally introduced by 1986 as the RX-7 became a money maker for Mazda and cutting costs in production wasn't paramount.

Can I just plug in the new one?

I'm thinking no way...the harness might be the same but the components to control a turbo motor cannot be the same as a NA FC as far as the ECU or any onboard computers might go.

No idea, maybe 175....any good guesses out there...
