turbo II conversion

I'm converting my S5 to a Turbo II S5. The engine and tranny came with the engine harness cut. Can I splice the old N/A harness in with the Turbo II harness to plug into the ECU or does it not work that way. Also the power stearing pump on the TII engine came with a extra line that my N/A didnt have. Should I put my old power steering pump on there. I think that extra line might be for the rack and pinion to make the steering more stiff at high speeds. Not sure. This conversion is getting fun. I'd appreciate all the help I can get. Thanks.

If I get a JDM s5 engine wiring harness will I have to modify anything or will that work. The body, chasis, engine and tranny is all S5.

I've been through the forums and I've never come acrossed the power steering problem. Guess I'll look a little harder but without changing the rack and pinion out I guess I'll have to put on my old power steering pump. Thanks for the help rotorforce
