Engine question

So I have a 13B engine in my 87 rx7. If I swapped it out for a 13BT, do I need to change the ecu or harness? And, will the tranny match up too? Thanks in advance!

Yes, then no. Modify the harness.

Yes.

If you're this bad at searching, I recommend you not take on this project.

Okay and I have one last question. The engine and tranny I have now doesn't have power steering. When I buy the new engine and tranny with power steering, do I have to make any modifications? Thanks!
