Default Mega/Micro Squirt for Yb, Loom help

Righto, I have a YB turbo ready to be stuck in my capri but.... I have no wiring loom or ecu stuff at all. The pinto that it is replacing has had a megajolt fitted by myself that i can salvage bits from.

Or does anyone know of an aftermarket loom I can use?

Regards


Edit.....

So I need to get a loom, an L6 ecu, ignition amp and a coil pack, any thing else? Only bit I do have is the dissy.

Sorry to bore with a novice query, just need a few pointers as to what I need to get going.

Thanks

L6 or L8 loom will be fine, just need to swap a few wires that's all, can also use the L8 ecu if you want as it is better than the L6, personally(money dependant) I'd ditch the std ecu's and just go aftermarket, never looked back since I did.
There is 4 or 5 connections needed to connect the engine loom to the car so dead easy.
If you are even thinking of a coilpack I would seriously look at prices of everything, it is possible to get a NEW ECU new loom and mapped for Ł500, so no point if hundreds on coilpack imo then Ł500 for msd setup on top, the ecu I think is from m tech, advertise on pf do a search, vastly better value imo, this isn't the ecu I went with but is a very good ecu from what I hear.
