OK guys, some of you know im puttin a 2ltr 8v in my mk2, and was gonna run it on twin 40's but this is gonna be expensive, so have decided to put it on digi injection, just need a bit of help with what im gonna need, also which parts of the loom i need to fit etc, im an electrician so it shouldnt be to complicated if some1 gives me a starter
and yes i know it wud be easier to go and buy a gti, but i love my driver, and have pleanty of time on my hands over winter :wink:

if you get the wiring from the same era of car, ie, 90 spec if your's is 90 spec it shouldn't be too hard to do. just swap the engine side of the wiring over to run the digi setup.
not sure about fuel pumps, but swapping it for the gti one shouldn't be too hard.

are we talking engine side as in, all temp, oil sensors aswell?

I would guess so as the ECU needs a lot of these to run properly. Unless you're changing your dash for an MFA equipped one though, some of the sensors won't be used.

nope, you don't need the oil & temp sender loom as that is the same for all mk2s. (apart from the blue temp sender, which is for the ecu)
The easiest way to get what you need is pull the ECU out, and follow any wires joined to it, to the fusebox.
You'll need the loom and sensors for:
ECU
Hall sender
Injector rail
Blue temp sender
Coil
TCI unit (above ECU)
If you want the MFA to function you'll aslo need the oil temp sender, outside temp sender and a vacuum pipe to the back of the clocks. I'd concentrate on getting the engine running first though ;)

I am doing this mod as we speak, I am going to fit a mk3 intank pump as this is the cheap and easy option, just need to check that the fuel lines will be ok with the pressure.
let me know how it goes, as I am stuck already have ripped the old engine loom out but the mk3 loom has some connectors that where not there on the driver :huh:
