Carbed V6 to 3.8 turbo... need input!
It's for my 83 wagon with a 3.8 229 carb motor stock. I figure this applies to 3rd gens as well!
I just picked up a 3.8 turbo motor complete with manifolds, turbo etc; but no harness or ECU.
I want to drop it in and Megasquirt it. I can get a harness for it on ebay for around $200.
Now... am I missing anything? It sure seems like a easy swap!
