I am gonna be shortening the piping a little bit more for slim fans but it looks like it should.

I sent him my original GE harness, and the aristo harness, along with the ecu, igniter and my gauge cluster since he will be doing the speed adapter. He will be mating the harnesses together so it works with the aristo ecu and plug and play with the sc300. Along with repairing the harness i have received since it was cut.

So basically you sent him all your wiring (GTE harness/GE harness GTE ECU and SC cluster) and hes going to make all work like factory ? Sounds great so he basically takes away the headache of the swap can u PM his contact info ?

Hey CThompsen! I'm in pretty much the exact same boat as you right now. I just drilled the oil return line for my N/A pan..and used 6mm - 1 tap for the screws. Don't forget to get the little o-ring that goes between the block and the upper oil pan! I almost missed mine.

How did you hook up the heater hoses to the cabin? My motor did not have hoses either on the back of the head or on the turbo side . Next time you're out taking pictures could you take a picture of how your heater hoses are hooked up, please? This is like the only thing holding me back ugh.

I still need to drill and place the banjo in the intake manifold for the brake booster.. Any idea what size drill you're going to use? I was planning to use my sc's banjo fitting if I could.

Hope everything goes right for you!!

thnx for the reply still a question though


so he will make it that your ge harness will plug into the aristo ecu and you still retain ge's body plugs to control everything else in cabin like dash and ac etc



but why did you have to send him your speedo and the ecu sent was it the aristo ecu

can you explain just alittle further and give me a rough idea what he charges for thisand if the end result is truly and plug and play affair

Yeah but a wire was pulled out of one of the ecu, and my harness was cut in 2 spots so for quick reference i sent him everything.

uhh what o-ring are you talking about? haha

as for heater hoses, i have the ge ones on the gte and the gte has the stock turbo hoses ill take a picture for you.

Insted of drill i will probably just be tapping into another line for the brake booster. I have to yet look into this, tomorrow is gonna be a big day for finalizing for me i have off of work. I should have more answers then.

Yes, plug and play everything! It's a no worry guarantee that everything will work just like stock. I sent him the speedo since the aristos speed sensor is 10mph off. He installs dakota tach adapters into them.

Charges.
40 for shipping,
150 if your harness is cut or needs repair,
75 for the tach adapter install
450 for the harnesses

715 total, then if you want priority it's another 100-150 priority is where it gets done before other projects.
