I started a 3sgte swap into my 98 celica just a few days ago. Everything has been going well so far, engine is in on 3 mounts ( fourth is poly filled drying currently) The problem I'm currently having iis being massively overwhelmed by the wiring. The harness was still on the engine when I bought it. Between coolant lines, vacuum lines and connectors I don't know where to start. I spent all day scouring through other forums and posts and haven't find anything as helpful as I'd like. 6 hours today looking at my engine bay and maybe two connectors plugged in. Any help or advice would be much appreciated

When i did the 3S swap in Amy's car, I made my own relay setup and used the FC signal as the trigger. so if the fuel pump is on, then the intercooler pump is on. It was really easy to setup.
when I was building V6 swap harness' I took the entire harness apart. then re-pinned each wire. i made sure i had enough length and my color codes were correct. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo
