basically i want to know if i my n/a motor can bolt into a turbo shell with the turbo engine loom fine, or do i need to put in the n/a loom with the n/a motor. I know i will need to run the n/a computer for it. but if i can get away without replacing the loom (and then changing it back when i get a turbo motor) all the better.

as far as I know looms are the same bar the provision for detonation sensor on the turbo model, I'd wait for a second opinion to double check though Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yeah ill second that

Ok.. so the n/a engine will plug into the loom fine (as long as i plug in the n/a computer aswell) and it will run fine ??

They are the same, the turbo loom has a wire on pin 21 for the knock sensor, you could use a turbo loom on a n/a engine but to use a n/a loom on a turbo add the knock sensor wire. Carcrazy
