the harness between the 2 are not the same, the turbo harness has a few more sensors integrated into it, turbo boost, temp, etc. alot of the sensors have different connectors because of the different parameter of the sensors, differentiating them from the turbo sensor and N/a sensor. the ecu cannot be made to except the turbo boost, different chipset, the ignitor is different, the 2 manual trannys will bolt up but are not the same, the N/a tranny is very weak and synchro's are different and will tear up real quick if you do any speed shifting, which with a turbo ppl tend to do alot. Suggestion, get the harness and ecu and ignitor with the engine your getting. if not, you can get ecu's and harness's on ebay really cheap.
