Hi there ! This is my first post here through i lurked in the forums for a couple of years.I hope someone out there can help me.

Recently i decided to make the huge step to turbocharge my n/a s15.I couldn't find a s15 turbo engine so i settled with a redtop s13 i found for a good price.At that point i did not even dream the wiring hell i would get to... Eventually after installing a new electrical harness the majority of electrics work perfectly as they did except the temperature meter in the instrument cluster and the oem boost meter i installed initially in the a-pillar.The boost meter was solved easily by simply installing a cheap aftermarket boost meter.But the temperature meter was impossible to work .From my understanding it needs the s15 original harness and ecu or something like that...

Is there any way to make it work ? I sorted everything else except this one and i really really want to keep the interior as clean as possible without additional gauges double faced here and there...

Ps (The cas is as stock as a swap can be with its factory ecu)
