yes the supra tt downpipe will work.
if you look at the wiring diagram it will show you where it goes, part is in between the ecu and tach part is in the harness to pick up signals and then pos ground and remote turn on ( i think, cant remember between the fcd, scd, etc.) either way you get the point.

k, i've bought everything
instead of going FMIC i got a clip to use the smic.
i figured i'd kill two birds w/ one stone, because while doing this i get engine mounts incase i break any, AND i'm going to try and use the digital cluster.
the swaps a bit more expensive for me than VJ-RC made it to be, but he didn't have to get a clutch. and got a good deal

i had 4k saved up, i paid someone ~400 for space, tools, storage, help + more.
and so far i'm down 3k(including the 450)
that was clip, ship, clutch, throttle cable, tranny parts(my tranny needed some tlc), fuel pump, bushing that i dont need for this. if your doing this yourself 100% and don't buy extras, i'd be at ~2400 still.
I should have everything but the fluids + misc crap
also, i am not doing timing belt and other changes atm.
i am going to do that shortly down the road.
also, i'd try to include Koyo rad or something to help keep everything cool in the end.
i'll post up my total when i'm done
