s5 TII swap into 88 na SE

Well i have read the faq and i was wondering if someone could just help or give info that have done the swap, i basically know what i need so that i can keep my s4 drivetrain, i just have never done a rotary swap and this would be my first, I know that i need the s5 wiring harness and ECU, and the motor of course but is there little stuff that i am forgetting just wanting to make sure, If someone could help give some info that would be great.
Thanks.

the s4 t2 motor will be easier to swap. the n/a harness u have right now will plug and play on a s4 t2 motor and will save u money.

u need the

motor (longblock)
ecu
boost sensor
maf
upgrade fuel pump
boost guage
throttle cable
and the tmic or a fmic

and to use your n/a driveline u use the n/a flywheel and clutch and put them onto the t2 motor

also if u choose the s4 or s5 t2 motor u have to have the s4 or s5 componets that i listed as they differ with each series

yes if u get the s5 u need the harness but really the n/a and the t2 dont differ to much and the boost sensor is that little lback box mounted by your intake air box that has a vaume line running to it
