93' NA Daytona to T2 setup

Hey everyone, I have a few questions that I need to ask on my current build.. I am planning on dropping a T2 Non-CB engine into a 93' Daytona. The 93' is currently a 2.5 TBI, A523 car. Here is my problem. I'm rather new to building car's /engines etc so I'm not sure what as far as wiring and sensors I can use between the two platforms. I will be getting a 91' Wiring harness from The Pope here shortly so I don't have to mess around with not having a bulkhead connector. The T2 won't be stock as its going to get a .60/.48 garret attached to it and a stage 5 FWDP cal with supporting hardware. What it boils down to is what senors do I need and which ones can I live without. Also what do you guys do to get rid of the emissions stuff. Any advice, pictures, diagrams would be most helpful.

just did one a 92, its not fun and the only easy way i found was using a 92-93 2.5TI engine harness and sbec. then custom cal. i did it with my n/a 92 es and made 16V turbo maserati head 2.2L and 523. do you have a wiring diagram for the 91 harness? i would be interested to see it because i might have to rewire a 91 tIII harness for this car to run my 92 stuff.
yea I'm supposed to be buying a 91' 2.5 T1 harness from The Pope. I currently have a 88-89 Stage 5 but I see that it won't work lol.. I'll have to get a hold of FWDP and see if I can exchange/buy one lol.

Xtrem, did you use any of the senors that were on the car or did gut the whole engine bay and start fresh?
i used a mix of TIII sensors and old style 89 TII sensors. i just put whatever connectors i needed on the wiring
cool.. I suppose i'll figure something out lol..
It would probably be much easier to go with newer electronics for your car. See if you can get a T1 wiring harness from a 93 or so and then just add the couple t2 items to it rather than going with an old wiring harness and having to hack it all up to get it to work.

that was the plan for it.. I was getting a 91 2.5 T1 harness and going from there
Anybody ever stop and ask themselves why we get ourselves into these projects? Didn't think so lol. Keep us updated on this project I wanna see how she turns out
