ok so i have found a few turbo engines in japan to put into my wagon r+.

the main problem i am having is whether the engine harness will plug straight up together with the turbo ecu.?

can anybody help with the wiring side of things as to what ill need, and does anyone know the differences between the turbo engine wiring and the NA.

im not sure if anyone has done this swap with a factory turbo engine or not but i would appreciate help.

I haven't heard of anyone doing the swap, but considering the WagonR+ was a direct import of the Japanese WagonR Wide I can't see a reason why it wouldn't be plug and play.

Don't bother with the K10a. Go LARGER.

- It's rare
- Parts are hard to source
- No one has information on it
- It's not very powerful
- The turbos extremely small
- It's on constant boost

The good:

- It's economical
- You can fit a Blow off valve

Youtube the k10a. See how slow it is.

The advice above is pretty sensible. The K10AT only puts out as much power as a stock G13B or M15A, and they're far easier to find. The only benefit of sticking with a K series is that it is physically a direct swap.
