gauge cluster s4 na to s4 t2

Do I need to rewire or change any connectors to go from s4 na cluster to s4 t2 cluster? I noticed that the NA connector to the cluster is missing a couple pins. (this is the reason for me asking.)

Also I noticed I might be able to just disconnect the plugs that go into the cluster and plug in the plugs for the T2. Any idea on that also?

Thanks.

just plug it in. The NA gauge set doesn't have the boost gauge wires

Ok so ... the boost gauge will work right just moving it over??

weird how it works without the pins. *Shrug*

or do I need to unplug the clusters plugs and move the plugs over also?

Huh???

You said you were using non turbo S4 gauge cluster into a S4 Turbo.

There would not be a boost gauge on a non turbo gauge cluster

Does it require just changing the plugs and the gauge cluster or do I need to rewire some things?

Don't waste your time. You should be using an boost aftermarket gauge if you're planning any mods, and a voltmeter is far more useful that the stock boost gauge.

I already have a boost gauge on the way (prosport), is that the only difference between the gauges/missing pins/wires?

unless you replaced the dash harness the turbo cluster will not work on a non turbo car

So why would you want a useless stock one?

The engine's redline will still be 7000rpm, so why do you need a 9000rpm tach? **** value?

so can you do it or not??
Only S5 NA have a 9000rpm tack, and S4 and S5 gauge clusters are not a direct swap. You would need to rearange all the pins in each plug.
