What other parts do I need?

Before I start I searched "turbo swap" and other things and mostly found for sale posts.

So I managed to get an almost complete S4 turbo swap for 200$. That included the following:
Turbo
LIM
UIM
Turbo 2 wiring harness
emission hard lines
TB
Intercooler

I know I need
ECU
Pressure sensor
turbo AFM

does it matter which ones I get? Can i mix and match or do they all need to be the same? (N332? etc etc)

Would it make sense to try and have a manifold created or use a stock one? I have a rx7 mechanic handy who can make me a manifold.

I have to look at my parts and make sure those are all of it and if I'm missing anything else..


My goal is to clean up all of these parts and use the winter to put em on now that I have another car to DD. It's nice not putting so many miles on the rx7.

I guess you're converting your 6 port NA block to a TII... correct?

Allow me to introduce you to Aaron Cake's how-to site:

If you're dropping a TII engine in, then this is where you need to look:

Melt the 2 topics together to get every bit of information you'll EVER need

Keep in mind the TII block is 4 port, and the NA block is 6. If you're putting TII components on your NA engine, you need to modify the TII LIM.

Yeah I'm aware. I think I take an NA gasket and then sharpie it on to get the outline and then dremel it out.

Much appreciated! I'm very excited to finally be going boosted.
