JDM swap
Im looking at getting a S5 Turbo JDM motor with a cut harnessfor my S4 N/A. I have a spare S4 Turbo harness and obviously a S4 N/A harness. First off will the N/A harness work or will the S4 Turbo? Like i would need them to plug into the S5 ECU.

Get a S4 engine, it will save you a lot of trouble in the end. Also some people managed to keep the N/A harness but using the turbo one is better and you'll also need the correct TII ECU. This has been anwsered many times in the past so please search if you'd like more info.

^Don't listen to him. Keep your N/A harness as it has the alternator wiring. You will run into nothing but headaches if you use a turbo harness.

while we're on the subject, im putting a 62' HUEY jet engine in my 88 tII... can i use my stock fuel pump or will i need a walbro?
ANYWAY i agree with the other guys, get an s4 engine it will make for a much easier swap. Unless of course you already have the s5 motor

I'll just tell you what I did... I bought a S4 JDM 13BT and used my S4 N/A harness. There is very little modification that needs to be done to use the N/A harness. It works great BTW.

Yeah, it should be the same for your S5 swap. S5 TII engine with S5 N/A harness will work. I guess you figured that out...
My swap is pretty much done, just waiting on one more thing. Good luck to you too though~
