Just use all of your highport sensors and harness. Same motor, just a different intake manifold that you can also switch over.

It is very straight forward. The biggest thing will be to fab up a bracket(s) if you use the B13 igniter/external coil. You will also (most likely) need to extend a couple wires for IACV, etc since the harness might not reach.

I have done a highport into low port chasis and the only thing we had to do was extend the knock sensor wire. I don't see where you should have any problems.

I did a LP->HP. You also have to swap throttle cables, or make a custom bracket.

you guys make this sound so easy, lol.

I'm planning of doing this set-up on my ga powered b13.

I been having the motor already on the engine stand. That will go through some crazy surgery. tapping the block for turbo, thermo spacers, change the seals/gaskets, change rod bearings, lightweight pullies and also planning of slapping some agressive cams, cam gears, s & r's, and etc.. I have all the turbo stuff laying around thats been waiting for me to work on the motor.

Well see how it goes.
