Never will it be a MK4 XR3i loom with a lambda sensor...

The cars only ran up to 1990, a few years before cats were introduced into the law.

To run OFAB on a standard XR3i EFI loom is a very simple job indeed. You need to research your loom more and find out exactly what it is.

EFI XR3i's over here on both 89 and 90, were not models with a lambda.

Your loom may be compatible, if not you can make it compatible but obviously there will be wiring work involved, what exactly i cannot tell you unfortunately.

You need to acquire a wiring diagram really
