Default fuel computer

i bought a fuel computer off ebay the other day and i went to fit it today and i cant find the connector plugs anywhere behind the dash, so my question is did all the series 2 turbos come with the plugs or was it only certain models, i found 2 connector pluigs behind the dash but they didnt fit the fuel computer

any help much appreciated

Hi mate.It is a seperate loom coz I got one in mine.you need a few other things as well such as a module that bolts onto your fuel distribution unit and a speed sender which goes on the end of your speedo cable (theres one on e-bay at the moment for sale).Dunno why everyone says theyre crap coz mine is so accurate its untrue.Never let me down and I think the gauge is crap coz it fluctuates up and down.

they are a sod to fit, with all the wiring and changing of pipes and sensors (speed sensor) if i were you i'd gut it and fit 1 of them act gauges in it with the display almost the same size
