OK for now :) the question number 42 hehe
KL-ZE distributor has 4 pin plug, my harness is for 2 connectors 3 and 6. The new ECU will be KL62 I must also purchase a harness? or rewire my current harnes to new ECU and distributor?

PS I still want this KJ when i'm thinking about it's torque 300...

I think it's fairly obvious that the 4 pins are for the two Camshaft Position Sensors, so pins A to D on that diagram I sent you. You'll have to work out which is which.

You'll have to provide an igniter and coil from somewhere else, and wire it up to the harness. You should be able to work it out from the diagram. Provided you get your K8 distributor fixed, it would be much easier to just use that.

I think your car is before '95, so it's OBDI. For that reason, you should use the KL31 or KL36 ECU. It's only worth trying the KL62 if the car is OBDII.

Hmm I have antoher proposition form one of our tunning groups.

To install garret T3 on my K8, it has compression 9.2 perfect for boost system :)
They told me that at the end i will obtain
200HP and 235Nm torque. Torque is higher than KL-ZE !
And the turbo system can be deinstalled before selling the car in the future. So it's more flexible and cheaper :)

cheaper? unlikely. Total cost of a turbo kit can easily run $3-$4k

at the end, after calculations it will be something around $2k
