That was my first setup.. its very easy, plug and play dude, just try to get the SI tranny if you can, the HF tranny just sucks.

i've try that...
I had problem using the si engine harness (wouldn't start).
Swap it with the HF engine harness, start up fine.
The only issue I had with that swap was I kept getting the O2 sensor code. It was still getting the O2 sensor code even after i use a new O2 sensor. Continuity from O2 to ecu was fine, any how the car was sold.....

would it be easy to replace the engine/cabin wiring harness with the si wiring harness? cause i cant seem to find a 88 hf wiring harness anywhere and was considering going to a junk yard and getting a complete si wiring harness all the way up to the fuse box.
