I am getting ready for the turbo swap on my n/a 87

Does anyone know of a good online pin map of the LA3 computer?
I would like to retain most of the original wiring if possible.

thanks,
jason

And you only need to move around a few wires and add 1 and you're done...as covered on my 87-90 swap page.

Do you have this picture available for viewing? I havnt been able to see it since I started looking for that diagram a few months ago. I am a visual learner so having a road map will help me a lot.

:SNSign:

Thanks for the help guys.

I am hoping to ge the computer in over the holiday break.

It looks like the wiring will be straight forward.


Has anyone used an LA3 to run an N/A 2.3?
Using the LA3 will allow me to diagnose (datalog) the stumbling idle, as the tweecer does not support the n/a computer currently in the car.

I am guessing the load scaling will be off, as well as timing and fuel.
I would like to have everything running well before adding boost to the equation.

I'll have to do more reading tonight.

Thanks again,
jason
