small turboII swap question ???
I found a s4 motor but its connected to a auto trans. i am going to use my na manual trans for a little while. but the question is there anything different on the auto motor that would have to be changed for the manual setup. such as ecu, harness i know s4 flywheel better NA pressure and clutch.
I have read a lot in the search section but they all talk about manual to manual not auto to manual.

Must be a jspec turbo motor, there were no automatic turbos in north america.
Take the auto trans, torque convertor, flexplate, and counterweight off the turbo motor. The counterweight can be sold for a good 50 bucks on here, the rest is junk.
Take your NA flywheel and bolt it on, proceed as usual.
There will be a vacuum hose somewhere on the back of the turbo motor that went to the auto trans, which must be capped off to prevent a leak.
Everything else should be fine.

no sorry i want to do a s4 TII conversion in my s4 GXL. the motor TII is connected to a auto right now and i want to put my NA manual trans on it for the time being and i need to know if i have to buy anything else to do the conversion because it is comming off auto TII. the motor if i buy it is comming with motor, auto trans, tmic, ecu, uncut harness, and ac/ps/alt.
i just need to know if its going to need different little part to work properly with a manual trans. sorry for the confusion
