Do a search for harness simplification or single turbo harness. There are several threads that show how to do this.

I'm keeping mine stock because you never who'll want i later on if you decide to ditch the harness and you might as well keep it stock just in case.

True but you might switch ECU's and don't need the stock wiring harness. Someone might want to pick it up but only stock and with the way prices of harnesses going it would be good to keep it the way it is.

the t04s is super resposive in my opinion, it almost feels like non seq twins. i hit 18 psi somewhere around 3700ish rpm,

love that turbo

Good luck with your conversion. I have the same kit from rx7store. It took awhile to come in and the turbo manifold had to be modified to fit, but i couldn't be happier with it. I will let you know my numbers after i get my tune sometime this week.

yeah good luck with the turbo im anchious to see how much power you can pull out of that thing.

Jut to let you know when you go single theres alot of the wires from the engine harness that youll never use so i would advise you to make a custom one and just start cutting off the ones you dont need. otherwise when you look at your engine bay youll just see wires hanging around thinking someone unplugged something

I made 374whp & 304ft/lbs at 15psi on a dynapack dyno today. I actually ended up talking to Jason while it was getting tuned and he said it would be about 410-415whp on a dynojet. How is your progress coming?
