B18 using b16 loom... Map sensor?! Advice needed ASAP

[Chris_EK4]

Hi,

I'm putting a b18cr (96 spec) in my 98 ek4,

Basically I'm using a uk b16 loom on an b18 engine with a jdm p73 ECU, is that ok to do that? (Both obd2a everything else fits)

Also there's a sensor (looks like a map sensor) on the 2nd branch if the inlet manifold, the b16 inlet doesn't have this thus the b16 loom doesn't have the wiring for it in the loom...so will it effect how the engine runs with it not plugged in/missing from the loom??

Need advice ASAP,

Thanks

It's just an intake temp sensor just ignor it and use the b16 one in the airbox.

x2 alot of guys just block that one at the front off since the b16 loom doesnt have it,mate had to do it when fitting itr intake mani onto his vti
