Need Advice T2 Swap.

Well, I got a S4 T2 complete swap with was Rebuilt/Ported by Kevin at RR for a very good price. I'm going/planning to swap it into my S5 Vert.

Now my question is should I find a S5 turbo harness/ accessories that a accompany the usual S5 swap or should I just go with a Standalone( Microtech) and not have to worry about hunting down the parts.

I'm sure its going to be cheaper to find the parts but its going to be more of a headache locating all of them.

I'm not sure what the best plan if attack would be.

What are your plans as far as future mods go? That may dictate what would be the best thing to do.

250-275hp MAX. Just a decent drift setup. Turbo upgrade, FMIC, little stuff to make it more reliable.

My default response with cross series swaps is to go with a standalone. If the car is a pure track car, then a Microtech is fine. But if it is to be driven on the street, get an ECU that isn't an antique like the Haltech Sprint RE.
