Holy home town grandforks for me too. Welcome and if your planning a topswap keep trolling the classifieds here youll find what you need pretty cheap in there too.

Thanks guys only question i have is can i use the pcm thats currently in the car and just have it tuned for the addition of the blowwer or do i need to get a pcm from a s/c car

[Scottydoggs]

if you dont have a tuner local and your just swapping stock engine and tranny take the pcm from the donor car if its within your year range of usable pcm's.

and the engine harness too.

97- 98- 99-01 01-03. 04 up this is how it works for gp's and regals, not 100% sure on the bonnies.

No wont be a stock exchange. Im thinking about a top swap. From a n/a engine to a super chargerknow the mechanics of it I was just checking to see if I couldhave my pcm. Tuned. To recognise the boost or if I have to. Take the pcm and harness from a donar

you should get it tuned and swap to a l67 map sensor. you need to add the boost by pass solenoid part of the harness too.

why snagging a sc engines harness makes it easy, but can still al be added to a n/a harness.

Billboost37 is our resident bonnie guy, he would be able to steer you in every right direction.

[bonnevilleman45]

Then ill just snag the harness should interface with my exsisting pcm.

[BillBoost37]

Skip the harness ole Bonne buddy...

All you'd need to do is add the boost soloniod wiring and change the plug on your map sensor (or use an L32 map sensor ..it's the same connector as L36).
PCM, just program it up and you are off and running.

[brugg125er]

Welcome! Im in grand forks also

[bonnevilleman45]

Thanks billboost. , I THOUGHT. Could just add it to my harness just wanted to make sure ill grab the L32 sensor, im going through the suspention and brakes while im waiting on the block to come back from the machine shop. And my wifes taking care of the interior. Then. Once thats done it. Will be tuned. Tested painted and driven

[bonnevilleman45]

And bruggs. Is there anyone in grand forks that does tuneing???, havent been here alk that long. Im a n.y transplant so in still kinda getting a feel for this town

[brugg125er]

If you mean dyno tuning, no. I don't know anyone who has hp tuners etc. either. I think the closest dynos are either in Sioux Falls, SD or Minneapolis/St. Paul. Thats cool I'm from New York also, I'm just here for college.
