Well that’s good news, the car the engine came out of the harness was already sold along with processor. So the harness was going to run $1K new. If this swap needs a 7.8 DME are you sure the harness will work with small mods. That was my background before, engine driveability and electronics.

Can anyone point me to the info needed to modify the harness and to by a DME?

I would also like to do some internal engine mods like the X51 since its already out.
