Default efi conversion

im sure this question has been asked a million times before but here goes, i'm looking into changing my rs turbo from mfi to efi setup, i have a small idea of what i need to do the conversion, but has anyone got a step by step guide of whats needed? i have been told i dont need to change the entire car loom and that i can just chop the fiesta turbo loom into the origional escort loom?

basically i am sick of the shit mfi setup that constantly gives me hastle and want a more reliable setup, if anyone has a good guide to doing it, i would very much appreciate it, i have looked on the "bible" but it doesnt say about keeping the origional loom which i want to do.

Cheers.
