Greetings from Estonia

Hello
I´m from Estonia (small country in Europe)
Iv been reading this forum for some time but now i have some problems and questions for you.

I have a ´89 TII (only one in Estonia) and i got it with blown engine ( turbo and other stuff was good)
I also have a ´87 NA (only 2 in Estonia) that had a 1600km driven brand new engine.

So i took my S4 NA engine and put all S5 TII goodies on it (ecu, turbo etc from TII but irons from S4 NA engine). I havent driven it yet but it started first time and engine sounded good. So now i have some questions for you since in Estonia nobody knows anything about rotary engines. Even the dealer doesnt know anything.

Questions:
1) I put in coolant and it has no air in it at all and the coolant level is ok. After about 15seconds the buzzer goes on. I checked that the coolant level sensor is ok and also the wire coming from it is ok. I grounded the wire to check and it didnt stop the buzzer. What should i try next?

2) Since i have a high compression engine with turbo then what AFR-s should i tune it to? And how far from turbo should i put the WB sensor? I will be making a 3" exhaust for the car.

3) The NA block didnt have a knock sensor on it and it doesnt have a hole for it. Whats the best solution to connect the knock sensor?

4) How do i set timing on this engine? (i have a haynes manual but it doesnt say anything about it)

5) How much boost is safe with original turbo,intercooler and ecu with S4 NA engine?

Hope you can give me some ideas.
Thank you in advance.
