Ive got an extra S15 Spec S Automatic laying around and a SR20DET engine from a S14 plus ECU, intercooler etc. I know how to do everything to change the car to manual but unsure of exactly what i need to do as far as wiring to go from NA to Turbo. Ive swapped turbo to turbo before but not this way. Ive looked online and cant find much as far as S15's go. Can anyone tell me what i need to do or point me in the right direction.

BTW i dont care about your personal opinion on weather u think i should do this or no so if you dont have info on how to do this then dont leave any comments...

Tnx

1st off is the de dizzy out cop? And is the de vvt? Also which ecu so you have? Is the ecu for a vvt s14 or just the plain black top?

The ecu is from the vvt as well as both engines

Ok so I just looked it up and you would have to switch that engine from distributor to cas and switch it to coil over plug for that ecu to work. You would also need the maf and injectors that match the ecu. Not sure on the wiring, you'd have to look at the ecu plugs and see if they are the same. If they are the same, than you'd need to repin your harness for the det ecu and add pins where needed for the coils and ignitor chip.

For sure man. It almost seams easier to do an entire swap with harness ecu, sensors.etc because them your only wiring up the dash plug and fuse box plugs.
