I finally have decided to go with the turbo swap. i have a 89' 2.3 HB automatic and i just ripped the motor out last week.a guy i know has 3 xr4ti's that are complete and running and will give one up for a grand(good deal i'm thinkin).this is my first swap ever and im only 19,but there are a couple things i need help on,
1. can i just swap computers or do the turbo motors have a different wire harness?
2. how hard and stressful is the auto-5spd swap? (as far as pedal assembly and tranny mounts)
3. i have 2 a4ld's and i know a few of the turbocoupes had them in them stock. did any merkurs come with an auto tranny? i have limited money right now so i wanna swap as least as possible. i just wanna get it running on the road right now.
any advise or feedback would help me out greatly, like i said im only 19 and this is my first swap. Thank you all in advance
